I wasn't as impressed as I thought I would be. It was filled with litter and homeless people lying under the shade and over vents. It wasn't very impressive.

It is very small and overrun by homeless people (but it's not dangerous during the day). Walk through it quickly and then spend more time in the Public Gardens across the street. I gave it a 4 on value only because it's free, but you will be asked for change constantly.

We went in late March. The Frog Pond was de-icing; the boat tours hadn't started yet, it was muddy and there WZERE no flowers. I'm sure that had we gone in the summer it would have been nicer-and it would've been very nice if I didn't LIVE in the country-this waws just another park.

Great place to get lost for half a day. There are some interesting historical sites near by and groomed lawns to relax and enjoy being outdoors. There is a fenced in playground that is great for young ones if you have them.

this is a wonderful place to rest, stroll and people-watch. all walks of life can be found there on any given day. it is clean and relaxing. a great place to meet with friends or sit solo and read a book.

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!

I like seeing green in the middle of a major city.It's Great place to take pictures of with the Boston buildings as background.It's like our version of NY's Central park. I love it!

I had the opportunity to visit the park on a sunny day in the middle of the week. The entire mood was vibrant and relaxing. Many people out sitting on the grass and benches relaxing, and there were many joggers. Being it was early spring the park didn't have all the flowers and pools/ponds in use but it was still a pleasant scene, AND it was ...

The kids (ages 2 & 6) had a blast in the Frog Pond. And we had fun watching them splash around and be silly! The rest of the park is very nice too.
