Introduction
Boston Park, one of the oldest public parks in the United States, was built in 1634. It also has the oldest cemetery in Boston, Central Burying Ground, where soldiers who died in the Battle of Bunker Hill in 1775 are buried. This green space has transformed from a political hub to a leisure spot for locals to hold various entertainment events and competitions. The most popular area in the park, Frog Pond, is used for swimming in the summer and transformed into an ice rink in the winter. Boston Public Garden on the west side of the park is the most famous attraction, featuring a row of bronze duck statues that sometimes wear hats and scarves. Visitors can take a leisurely stroll through the picturesque green paths, enjoy speeches from orators, and listen to musicians perform. Free Wi-Fi is available in the park, and during the summer, guests can take a ride on a signature swan boat and cruise on Swan Lake. This oasis in the midst of the city's hustle and bustle is definitely worth exploring. Address 139 Tremont St, Boston, MA 02111
