Boston was, until 1755, the biggest city in America; as the one most directly affected by the latest whims of the British Crown, it was the natural birthplace for the opposition that culminated in the Revolutionary War. Please come here and enjoy a nice surprise.

I just got back from my vacation in NYC and Boston, as well as other parts of New England. We stayed in Boston for 7 days, in the beginning of September. My first initial impression, I had thought it was going to be boring compared to NYC, where we spent a few days before. I had also thought the people seemed not too friendly.

Boston is a beautiful city full of history, culture and scenery. It's probably one of the best cities to go to pro sports in. The one thing that bugged me was the people weren't the friendliest I've ever met, but I've heard that's true for most of the East Coast.

Boston has this old world charm I only found in Europe. Its streets are narrow and crooked and unlike New York the sidewalks are not very wide. But next to a foot wide sidewalk is a huge skyscraper and next to the skyscraper is a building built by settlers. Its amazing that the city planners kept such history intact and moved the city in a modern ...

Boston is a lovely city with lots to do and see. I have to agree with other reviewers regarding the rudeness of some of the residents. And the city is very segregated.
