You may be surprised to see Boston on here. The city is filled with contrasts. Some, like its juxtaposition of historic and modern landmarks, are good. But there’s also notorious inequality, which gives the city a bad reputation. Still, compared to other cities of its size, Boston doesn’t fare too badly in terms of safety.
Spend your time on the Freedom Trail, strolling along the waterfront, doing a whale-watching tour or visiting an art museum. Oh, and don’t forget to indulge in the city’s fine dining restaurants.
