Boston truly is the seat of America's history, and the Public Garden is no different as the country's oldest botanical gardens. Located just across Charles Street from the
Boston Common, Boston Public Gardens features tranquil scenery, serene swan boats, and the much-beloved duck statues. The four-acre pond features foot-pedal Swan Boats, one of the Boston's most popular daily outdoor activities.
There's also an astounding statue of George Washington on horseback that was constructed in 1869 and faces the head of Commonwealth Avenue at the Arlington Street gate. Children will love clamoring on the statues dedicated to the popular book, "Make Way for the Ducklings," making Public Garden an ideal location for the entire family. Be sure to bring along a camera, as you'll enjoy great photo opportunities you can't find anywhere else.
