TD Garden

If you want to catch a concert or sporting event, you will likely end up at TD Garden. The venue is home to the NBA’s Boston Celtics and the NHL’s Boston Bruins. If you are here this summer, you will watch the Celtics play through the NBA Playoffs. Outside of sports, it also hosts many music concerts throughout the summer.

Freedom Trail

The Freedom Trail is more than two miles long and will take you past 16 important locations that are especially important to American history. The trail will take you past the Boston Common, a beautiful park in the heart of the city, downtown Boston, a vibrant and bustling area, Old North Church, a historic church that played a significant role in the American Revolution, and the Bunker Hill Monument, a memorial to the first major battle of the American Revolution.

Fenway Park

Summer and baseball go hand in hand (or glove in hand?). There’s no better way to experience baseball than attending a Red Sox game at Fenway Park. Not only is it a great place to watch baseball, but you can also steep yourself in some Boston history. Fenway Park is more than 100 years old, and it has seen many expansions, renovations, and World Series games over the years.

Boston Common

Boston Common is a city park in downtown Boston. It is another outstanding location for those wanting to experience something special in Boston. It is the oldest city park in the United States, opening in 1634. This public park covers about 50 acres of land. The park has many attractions, including Frog Pond, Parkman Bandstand, Brewer Fountain, and many more.

Faneuil Hall

Spend some time browsing the shops and vendors in Faneuil Hall. This is a historic stop along the Freedom Trail, but it is also well known for its marketplace. You’ll find street performers, delicious food, and unique arts and crafts. It’s one of the best places to visit on a warm summer day with an ice cream cone in your hand.

Duck Tours

Hopping on board a Duck Tour is one of the best ways to see the city in summer. A Duck tour allows you to experience Boston on both land and water.
