Boston: The Walking and Shopping Capital of America
Built on a peninsula, Boston is a city full of historic streets
and architecture - much of which remain preserved today - that were
built to accommodate an 18th century population who lived on a
pedestrian scale. Follow the Freedom Trail and
spend a couple of hours walking along a route that passes 16
historical sites covering two and a half centuries of America's
most significant past. The Freedom Trail includes the Old State
House, where the Declaration of Independence was first read in
Boston, Faneuil Hall, Old North Church and the brilliantly restored
Quincy Market.
It's a well known fact that shopping is one of
the top reasons people visit Boston – above sightseeing and
museums. One look at the city’s boutiques, malls, department
stores, and outlets and you’ll understand why people flock here to
stock up on clothes, shoes, jewelry and books.
Enjoy the pedestrian paradise that is Downtown
Crossing; take a stroll on fashionable Newbury
Street; or stay under one roof at the various flagship
stores and Malls in the area, including - Cambridge Side
Galleria, The Prudential Mall,
Copley Mall, Macys,
Marshalls, Filene’s Basement and
H&M.
Venture outside the city via car or by scheduled shuttle bus and
visit the Wrentham Village Premium Outlets and
enjoy the best deals at 170 outlet stores.
