Visit the humble home of patriot Paul Revere, North End, the place where he began his famous ride. Stop at Old South Meeting House, the meeting place for revolutionary leaders John Hancock, James Otis and Samuel Adams. The same building where meetings of protest were place that eventually led to the American Revolution. visit the Old State House (now Museum of History from Boston), Park Street Church and Granary Burial Ground and while you're in the city center.

Go north and you reach the center of government. Here you will find the JFK Federal Building and City Hall. You'll find here Faneuil Hall, a building that was built from 1740. He doubled as a house and the market.

For beer lovers, why not by the Samuel Adams brewery? Adams is a leading figure in the American Revolution, but it was also famous as a tea lover Tours. What better way to participate in a tour that teach both history and beermaking both? are offered regularly.

The center also offers a variety of museums for you to visit. The Museum of Fine Arts, for example, houses priceless treasures from around the world. The collections include sculpture, decorative arts and paintings. It also houses the largest collection of Monet beyond that found in France.

Drop by Boston Harbor and thus try to reserve a boat or a cruise so you can view famous lighthouses in the region. Most of them are not open for public tours, however. However, you can take a tour of Boston Light, which been ongoing since 1793.

Parks and Zoos
Boston is home to some of the most outstanding parks and zoos in the United States. Franklin Park Zoo is a milestone in the region. It covers 72 hectares of land along Franklin Park Road and offers some of the best experiences for visitors through its history (it was founded in the early 1900s) and the variety of its animal residents. Currently, there are over 200 species animals who call this zoo.

One of its offerings more impressive is its exposure gorilla lowland gorillas which are housed behind display glass stations. If you've always wanted to experience these magnificent animals in person, but never dared, this first place in Boston will give you the chance you expect.

Although Boston has many beautiful parks, you can visit (the town is known as the oldest public park in the United States), no visit Capital can never be complete without dropping by Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox.

Boston subway stations at the following locations ..?

I am visisting Boston for 2 days, subways obviously easier means of transportation .. please tell me what line and stops at the following locations … Please Faneull Hall, Freedom Trail, USS Constitution Copley Plaza, Quincy Market, Fenway Park Harvard Harvard sq. Old State House Bull & Finch (Cheers The Original) The Science Museum and Aquarium Prudential Center Sam Adam's Brewery Tours Fleet Center Gillette Stadium

Here are the closest metro stops to your destination: Fanueil Hall: Blue Line to the Aquarium (you'll pass through if you take the subway in the city of Logan Airport). You could also get off at State Street (which is the next step after the Aquarium and about midway between Quincy Market and Fanueil Hall) but I recommend Aquarium because the station is modern, clean, well lit and with good signaling and numerous brochures and tourist information office. State station is being renovated and is very dirty. Also, contrary to the Aquarium He did not handicapped access or escalators. Freedom Trail: You can choose the route short walk from the parking station, street (on the Red and Green lines) or Government Center station (on the Blue and Green Line). Copley Plaza: Green Line to Copley. There are four different trucks outbound Green Line marked B, C, D and E. Either one to get you there. Do not take the "Lechmere" cart that goes in the opposite direction. Quincy Market: (same as Fanueil Hall) Fenway Park: Green Line "E" trolley to Kenmore Station (from there is a question for five minutes foot) from Harvard and Harvard Square Red Line train to Harvard "(look for the train that says" Alewife "on it … if you see a red line train that says "Braintree" or "Ashmont" then you want the train going in the opposite direction). Old State House: Blue Line to "State" station, the subway is directly under the building of the ESS (or you can also get off at the Aquarium station (which is only a few hundreds of meters away) and walk west to State Street Cheers / F & B: Green or Red Line to "Park Street Station" is a 10 minute walk along Beacon Street past the Massachusetts State House (where you can walk through Boston Common is in the same direction), Cheers Beacon Street is a street after St. Charles Museum of Science.: Take the Green Line "Lechmere" trolley and get off at the Science Park. Aquarium: Blue Line Aquarium stop Prudential Center: Take the Green Line "E" trolley (the one who said: "Heath Street" on it). Fleet Center (now known as TD Banknorth Garden): Green Line or Orange Line to "North Station". The arena is just across the street. Gillette Stadium: You need to go by rail commuter MBTA South Station. Return fare is $ 10. Visit the following link for more info: http://www.mbta.com/traveling_t/specialsched/New_England_Patriots_06-07.htm USS Constitution: it is the only benchmark that you have listed, which is not near a subway station (although it is near a bus stop MBTA). Take the Orange Line to Sullivan Square and look for bus 93 (Charlestown Navy Yard). * Do not worry if you miss one or two stops. Boston is a very compact city and you will see that many subway stations are so close to each other that it does not matter where you get off. For example, one of the responses suggests off at Downtown Crossing to go to Cheers. It is also possible (I listed Park Street because it's a block closer, anyway this is not always a walk far).
