Traditionally regarded as the center of America´s intellectual and cultural elite, Boston not only houses venerated museums and performance venues, but also a thriving alternative arts scene.
Using local experts and journalists, Time Out takes travellers on an in-depth tour of the essential sights - the landmarks of the Revolution, the elegant English-inspired architecture of affluent Beacon Hill and Back Bay, the colleges and hip hangouts of neighboring Cambridge - as well as the local curiosities most tourists miss.
For travelers who want to explore further, the guide covers highlights of New England´s history-rich Colonial countryside, pretty coastal villages and glorious sandy beaches - all an easy drive out of town.
