Downtown Boston is really the heart of the city. The seat of Boston City Hall, as well as the headquarters of many companies and agencies in the area. It is said to be the most European flavored downtown in the United States - here you’ll find pedestrian focused streets, large public green spaces, performers, and historic sites all connected by an efficient transit system.

 

Boston Common and Public Garden sit in the downtown area. Shoppers can browse for gifts and fashions along the bustling pedestrian mall at the intersection between Summer and Washington Street. Some of Boston’s oldest landmarks can also be found here, including the 18th century Old South Meeting House. 

 

Popular destinations include Boston Common, Faneuil Hall, King’s Chapel, and the Freedom Trail.
