Known as the “cradle of liberty,” Faneuil Hall is a market hall open to the public, occupied by market stalls, a council chamber, and the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Museum, with weaponry, uniforms, and paintings of significant battles.

3. Harvard Square and Harvard Art Museums

Harvard Square is a lively hub for students, locals, and visitors, is filled with shops, and bookstores. Adjacent to the Harvard Square are the Harvard Art Museums, including three formerly separate collections, each of which ranked high as major U.S. art museums.

Overlooking the waterfront, the New England Aquarium features more than 20,000 fish and aquatic animals representing over 550 species. A man-made Caribbean coral reef houses a large variety of tropical fish and underwater life including sharks, turtles, and moray eels. Outside the aquarium, visitors can watch harbor seals play, perform, and live in their enclosed habitat.

The Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its inaugural concert in 1881 at Symphony Hall, one of the world’s most acoustically perfect concert halls.
