The 7 Best Nature & Parks in Financial District, Massachusetts (MA)

February 19, 2022 Brain Ambrose

Walk the Freedom Trail the first time you visit Boston and you'll quickly get a sense of this coastal city's revolutionary spirit and history. But make sure you also explore some of Boston's fine museums (try the Isabella Stewart Gardner, featuring masterpieces displayed in their collector's mansion) and old neighborhoods (like the North End, Boston's Little Italy). You can't claim to have experienced real Boston culture, though, until you've watched a Red Sox game from the bleachers.

Stunning green space just before you enter the North End! Large swings perfect from adults & kids, animal statues the little ones love & tons of seating & green space. Perfect place for a picnic or coffee & a great book!

Just love this wonderful place is an otherwise busy city to meet & greet, walk the labyrinth, marvel at the Abstract Sculpture, a split rhomboid dodecahedron, that annually reconfigures to create a new sculptural shape - and to relax on one of the benches surrounding the Labyrinth and Abstract Sculpture.

New England Aquarium

The New England Aquarium is a global leader in ocean exploration and marine conservation. With more than 1.3 million visitors a year, the Aquarium is one of the premier visitor attractions in Boston and a major public education resource for the region. During your visit, reach out and gently touch cownose rays, Atlantic rays, and epaulette sharks as they swim through The Trust Family Foundation Shark and Ray Touch Tank, then dive into the Science of Sharks at our exhibit featuring shark species from around the world. Meet three different species of penguins and pet a sea star, meet a lobster, or cradle a hermit crab at the Edge of the Sea’s tidepool touch tank. Wind your way along the four-story Giant Ocean Tank and be mesmerized by the 200,000-gallon Caribbean coral reef exhibit teeming with more than 1,000 marine animals. The Aquarium has something to entertain visitors of all ages and Aquarium educators are always present to answer any questions.

Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park

Reviewed By TXMARTINS - Atlanta, United States

This is the perfect place for stunning waterfront views as well as lots of green space & playgrounds to run the kids energy off! We started or ended our tours around town here as it was near our Air BNB. The kids tolerated being in the stroller much longer after having some time to do something they loved! Beautiful in fall & an easy walk from the Aquarium.
