You can spend the summer under the fountain, or skate in the winter. Best of all, its smack in the middle of Boston. What else could one ask for?

We can not wait to go back
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/03/05
Boston Common is so beautiful,and peaceful.I love to go there and just relax,and people watch.And watch the swans.If you like to take a walk,or walk your dog,or just take a blanet and have a picnic.The scenery is beautiful.People are kind and curtious.It is just a fun day.For yourself,or the family.You see it in SO many movie's.but you must see it for yourself.
This is a nice place to take a stroll in the evening. You can read a book on the carpet of green grass and enjoy the summer sun.

History under your feet

History under your feet. Awesome ambience year around. Great people watching too. Must see whenever you visit Boston, even for a resident of this first class town.

Sun and relaxation

A perfect afternoon on the common consists of a quilt, books or magazines, your love, a starbucks tea and an upper crust pizza. You can get swept away for hours just reading and cuddling with a special someone. If you need a break Charles street and Newbury street are just around the corner. You can bask in the sun or hide in the shade. No matter who you are the common has something to offer you.
I loved visiting Boston, and when we walked through Boston Common, it just felt like we had been walking through there our whole lives. I absolutely loved it. Boston is a great vacation spot, filled with history and excitment, I just had a great time.
We loved the park anywhere you walked. The fall foilage is beautiful. That park was enjoyed from young families to seniors stolling through feeding the ducks.

A commn in the commonwealth

I like the Boston Commons because there is an atmoshphere of brotherhood, but that doesn't mean not to keep your eyes open. there is also a history of the commons, that most don't realize a history of an area that was set a side for the people of the city, who did not have an open area to not only enjoy as it is today, but as a place set ...

Good place to hang out
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/24/05
Boston Common is a great place to soak up some sun on a nice day, play frisbee, stroll, take the kids to splash around in Frog Pond (or skate on it in the winter!) It's a mix of almost every sort of Boston resident - great for people-watching. And free!
