Welcome
to Boston, the big city in the convenient
small city size! From history to museuMA,
from fresh seafood to hot dogs at Fenway
Park, Boston offers something for everybody.
One of the great things about Boston is
that it is a walking city (although there
are days in January and February when you'll
want to stay inside).

In
some ways, it's a very European place - very compact,
with narrow streets that beckon you to explore them.
It's also a place to start your explorations of
New England, find a beach or go skiing. Boston is
a great walking city. Every corner brings some new
historic site or some interesting building to look
at. Together, the people and the building create
an urban experience duplicated in only a few other
places. Everything you've
heard about Boston drivers is true. Our roads aren't
much better - while it's not really true that the
local road were laid out by wandering cows 350 years
ago, it will seem that way. Unless you want to see
sights outside the city (such as Concord), leave
your car in the hotel garage!
The MBTA (also known as the T) provides safe, efficient
subway and bus service to virtually every point
of interest. The T's Boston Visitor Pass give you
unlimited subway access for $6 a day; $11 for three
days or $22 for a week. If you do drive, be aware
that during the week, on-street parking is non-existent
and even garage spots can be hard to come by.
From the throngs around Quincy Market to the fruit
and vegetable sellers of Haymarket to the sunbathers
along the Esplanade, Boston is a place to watch
people. Harvard
Square - It's not just that it's surrounded by the
historic buildings of Harvard University. Or that
it has more book stores per square block than any
other place in America. Or that you get to see more
unusual haircuts than anywhere else in greater Boston.

Harvard Square is unique because
it is all those things - and more. It is the
unique mixing - the tweedy profs with pipes
side-by-side with the skate punks down by
the Pit.
Quincy Market is the tourist trap extraordinaire
- some boosters claim it has more visitors
each year than Disneyworld. But it was built
in 1826 for more prosaic reasons - to serve
as a place for Boston wholesalers to prepare
and ship meats and produce. You go to the
marketplace because, well, that's just what
you do as a tourist in Boston. To be sure,
it's a fun place, with street comedians and
musicians, a gazillion types of food to try
and the like.
