Boston, the city of theaters.

So, after a long vacation I'm back on track full of new things to share, it's going to be interesting.

Today we are going to visit Boston, the biggest and capital city of state of Massachusetts. Well known for a Boston marathon, home of Boston Seltic's and some of the finest crab meat, but about that later in the my post.

 Settled  in 1630 and covering the 124 km2 with a population of 645.966 in 2014. makes the city of Boston the 24th largest city in USA and one of the biggest harbors in the world. Very interested city I must say, and so many things to see, so if by any chance way takes you to Massachusetts visit Boston, it's a must, so let's start.

As I said harbor is one the biggest but in the same time very beautiful. I'm starting from harbor since I've stayed in one of the hotels which was on a walking distance from. Was walking around during the day of my arrival and I was amazed, not because of something special I've seen there but the fact how the people of Boston take care of the harbor. Clean sight, full of life is something you cant see these days in harbors around the world. Beautiful boats all over the place as the one which caught my eye. Take a look of a picture and you'll understand what I'm talking about.

But that's not all, before you actually enter the harbor you have a small Victory gate to pass trough to enter to the magnificent world of see.

And by the way the water it self there are restaurants, restaurants which serve finest crab meat, I'm not the sea food lover, but, I must recommend a crab sandwich, proud of Boston, while you'r eating the sandwich you can taste the sea, freshness of the meat and combination of new age cuisine in the sauce making the sandwich even better, something special, delicious.


Walking down the harbor you can see something more, something special. There are some remains of a historical old harbor which was once great, and now, is just sitting there, maybe one day it will get a shine it deserves as an important part of the city, or, again, maybe not. So walking next to the beautiful sights of harbor which was once a big deal, you are entering the heart of a city itself, heart of the city of Boston.

Tall buildings, rocky streets and food trucks are just a part of the city, but much more is there to see and feel. First thing I would like to mention is an Old State House, built in 1713. and until the 1776. it was a Town House, but then became a State House until 1798. and City Hall, followed by a museum from 1881. until present. Beautiful building, you can see the old Georgian style of a building houses and its one of the landmarks of a Freedom Trail and in the same time the oldest surviving public building in Boston. Also which was very interesting for me was that in front of the same "house" there was a little in graved stone in memory of the killed in Boston massacre, happened in Mach 5th 1770. by the solders of a British army who were stationed in Boston. They've killed 5 and injured 6 more male people. So as you may see there are so many things to see and do in Boston, so we'll stop here, so you can do something by yourself, I don't want to spoil the fun. I'll just mentioned few more must see things so you know which way to go; Faneuil Hall, Old North Church, Massachusetts State House, Old South Church and much more.

And if you are lazy to walk around or you are short of time you can always take on of these and go around the city. Old school bus is very nice and the tour guides are professional, the only thing you need to be aware is that the seats are very hard, since they are wooden, so equip yourself for an enjoyable day and discover this beautiful city.




That would be all for today, hope you enjoyed reading as much as I was writing it, all the best, Nikola.
