As one of America's oldest cities, and the capital of Massachusetts, Boston's modern, vibrant streets echo its revolutionary past. Beyond being a historic milestone, Boston is also a thriving metropolis, rich with culture and hidden beauty.

Boston is a winding network of neighbourhoods and boroughs lining the sprawling Charles River. Each section has its own unique charm with great Italian food in the North End, Fenway Park in Kenmore Square, and Irish Pubs in Southie'. Like London, Boston is a fusion of old traditions and new arrivals that make it the cultural hub it is today.

One thing to keep in mind is that Boston is steeping with tradition, with none stronger than Red Sox baseball. For an authentic Boston experience, a visit to Fenway and a Fenway Frank will do the trick, just don't mention the New York Yankees.
