Spend some time hanging out in the country's oldest park. The 50-acre Boston Common is the anchor for the Emerald Necklace park system and is the starting place of the famous Freedom Trail. There are quite a few monuments throughout the park, and several outdoor events take place in the Common throughout the year.
Step into the opulence of yesteryear and tour the Otis House Museum. The house is the last surviving mansion in what used to be Boston's most affluent neighborhood in the 18th century; the man who owned the home, Harrison Gray Otis, was a lawyer who served in Congress and was mayor of the city at one time. The Otis House is still decorated with furnishings that were the best of their time period, including fine furniture pieces and art work.
Experience an excursion in Harvard Square, a commercial and recreational center for Harvard students, city residents and visitors. Along with being a hub for arts and entertainment, and home to a number of attractions, shops, eateries, and places to stay, The Square is also a historically significant location. It was here that George Washington took command of the Continental Army, it is where the first printing press in America was located, and it has also been the grounds for many student protests – among many, many other things.
Boston Bowl is more than just bowling; of course, if bowling is what you want to do they have you covered, but you can also shoot pool, practice batting at the batting cages, and go crazy on the games in the arcade. And when it comes to bowling, the options are seemingly endless. The bowling venue offers both tenpin and candlepin lanes, options for bumpers, Cosmic Bowling, and a bowling league if you're feeling like your skills are professional.
