Downtown Crossing
The Downtown Crossing is an intersection (交汇处) of three major city streets: Washington, Winter, and Summer Streets. It’s home to some of the best shopping available in Boston, with plenty of walkable malls and parks to enjoy. Most of the well-known store brands have a storefront here. In addition, there are also many outdoor spaces.
Freedom Trail
The Freedom Trail is a unique collection of museums, churches, meeting houses, burial grounds, parks, a ship, and historic markers that tell the story of the American Revolution and beyond. It begins at the Boston Common and ends at the Bunker Hill Monument in Charlestown. Walking here, every step tells a story.
Boston Harborwalk
The Boston Harborwalk is a public boardwalk that links all of Boston’s beautiful waterfront neighborhoods and harbor. This impressive waterfront is still under construction. When fully completed, it will extend 47 miles from East Boston, through Charles River and Millers River, to the Neponset River. Along the Boston Harborwalk are several indoor and outdoor displays of historical materials and memorials. Come here to enjoy the ocean scenery.
