The gardens known as Public Garden, and the oldest park in the US, Boston Common, are next door neighbors. As such, your visit can include both and you can also visit picturesque Beacon Hill, which is located right next to the parks. In the Public Garden you’ll find statues of well-known historical figures, a small lake with pedal boats, a small iron gate which guarantees some lovely pictures and several bushes and flower beds, magnificent in full bloom in Springtime. Take note of the skyline of tall modern building in the backdrop, an interesting contrast. Right next to it is Boston Common, where the famous Freedom Trail begins, and where you’ll find many landmarks important for US history as you follow the demarked trail on the sidewalks. In Boston Common you’ll also find seasonal attractions, such as sports events and festivals.
