One must always stroll through the Public Garden while in Boston. The city serves as a backdrop to the tranquil scenery of the park. Take a Swan Boat ride, watch the ducks, view the “Make Way for Ducklings” sculpture or just meander around. It should not be missed!

Boston Public Gardens in the fall has to be an almost perfect way to spend a couple of hours. For such a public place it has a tranquil atmosphere. The view across the water to a vista of Boston buildings is strangely lovely to look at. The swan boats glide quietly, mothers sit and watch their kids playing, busy Bostonians sip their Starbucks and ponder their day. Keep your eyes open for the cute mommy duck and her ducklings, these statues are so perfect and fit so well in their surroundings.As a visitor from the UK I was recommended to walk through these gardens and have to say, the weather was beautiful and I spent one of the most glorious hours of my trip in New England here.
