The Boston Commons

The Boston Commons is such a fantastic area I wanted to devote an entire post to it. Plus it was BEAUTIFUL when I was there and wanted to show that as well.


It is right in the heart of the city and is easy to access from so many places. It's a great place to hang out, people watch, bird watch, see the skyline, read, picnic, literally whatever you want to do.


The entrance sign from one corner.

It's easy to walk, lots of paved trails throughout for walking, biking, jogging, etc.

Church on Boylston. It's so lovely.


The park is full of different water features, a pond (although it was dry when i was there), and tons of different statues that are great to check out.

I love the mix of the park and the city surrounding it. The streets are so charming, the buildings really lovely, and it was just a great place to spend a few hours.



The bridge over the pond.

Ok last picture. I sat for a long time reading and just enjoying the sights. I would definitely recommend an afternoon in the Boston Commons! It's a great hang out, meeting spot, get a little nature, and rest before heading into the city to explore.
