48 Hours in Boston with a custom map

We know that you loved the Nairobi and Montreal My Maps that we posted on this board. So now's the turn for Boston. I'm sure that everybody knows something from that city, from its history, its sports teams (especially now that the Patriots won the Super Bowl) to its tv-famous bars where everybody knows your name (sorry, I had to say it, I was a big fan, you know).

So, as with the other maps, with this one you'll be able to enjoy 48 hours (or more!) in the city: restaurants, cafes and bakeries, nightlife, accommodation, tourists spots, arts and culture and shopping. You can access the map via this link: https://goo.gl/e9462V although you have it embedded here:

 

And as usual, if you are traveling to Boston, you can add this map to "Your Places" in your Google Maps app by clicking on the star icon. Then you'll be able to access the map whenever you want. As we always say, if you know Boston because you've traveled there, you live there or you know some other Local Guide who does, please tag them. That way we will be able to add even more awesome places to the map and make it even better. Happy exploring!

Thanks @LuisRG i love Boston! I've been here in 2013, and i enjoyed walking all around the city! My favourite area is the old city, near the American Alpin Club building and the Massachussets State House. I want to come back in Boston, one of these days!

Re: 48 Hours in Boston with a custom map

I visited Boston almost 7 years ago (time really flies :D)

 

I loved walking along the Charles River on both sides and, for night photography, the Fan Pier Park was great (I have to process those photos yet!)

Did you visit the Ray and Maria Stata Center by Frank Gehry? It was impressive!

I was in Boston the same days of the bombing, and when the attack occurred i was trying to reach the finish line for taking some photos. Luckily i was stuck in the traffic in Waltham.

Here is a picture i took that day, you can see a black federal helicopter on the upper right side.

Yes! I loved it.

I tried to feel like a student, in the same places and wondering how my life could have been here.

@LuisRG @LucioV I visited Boston in 2015. It was a nice experience walking along Charles river and skyline of Boston from Harvard bridge were mind blowing. I am sharing some photos of my Boston trip.
