HIGHLIGHTS & THINGS TO DO

NORTH END

Chances are you’ll end up in the North End at least once during your visit to Boston. It’s steeped in the city’s rich history as it holds the title of Boston’s oldest neighborhood and houses three attractions on the Freedom Trail. What makes this neighborhood a top point of interest, however, is its Italian culture: The North End is considered Boston’s Little Italy.

While Italians weren’t the first to settle in this area (English settlers arrived first then European Jews, African Americans and Irish immigrants), their cultural influence on the North End withstood the test of time. Today, you’ll find all kinds of Italian food from classic pizza pies served at the popular Regina Pizzeria to Sicilian-style seafood, such as black linguine (made with squid ink) and calamari meatballs at The Daily Catch. For dinner, try Mamma Maria for fine dining, Giacomo’s for its affordable, made-in-house pasta or Bricco, which sources its meats and bread from its own meat and bread shop, located right next door. If you’re only interested in pizza, hit up Galleria Umberto for delectable solo slices or Antico Forno for its full-size, wood-fired pies. Prezza is known for its extensive wine list, boasting hundreds of wine labels to choose from. For dessert, make sure to pick up a cannoli at Mike’s Pastry or Modern Pastry, or tiramisu at the 24-hour Bova’s Bakery.

The neighborhood is also known for throwing a pretty memorable party. Every summer, the North End hosts Italian feasts and traditional processions to honor a handful of saints. The biggest feast and most popular summertime event is Saint Anthony’s Feast, which is held in late August. Dubbed the largest Italian Religious Festival in New England, the event features live entertainment, parades and more than 100 pushcarts full of delicious Italian food.

Travelers highly recommend not only eating in the North End (multiple times) but also taking the time to wander around the beautiful neighborhood. Narrow, compact streets, centuries-old architecture and cobblestone-lined squares comprise the North End, making it a lovely place to get lost in. If you plan to dine here, travelers recommend both arriving early for dinner (places are known to garner lines) and some don’t take reservations. For more information, visit the North End’s website.

FENWAY PARK

Fans of America’s favorite pastime won’t want to miss a game at Fenway Park. Home to the Boston Red Sox, this stadium has been the site of home runs, stolen bases and grounders since 1912. Regardless of whether or not you’re a diehard Red Sox fan, you should try to catch a game and admire the ballpark’s original architecture. Must-see features of the park include Pesky’s Pole – the right field foul pole named after former Red Sox player Johnny Pesky – and the 37-foot-tall “Green Monster” wall in left field.

Many Bostonians are avid Red Sox fans, so if you plan on making your pilgrimage during baseball season (April to early October) and want to come for a game, book your tickets at least a few weeks in advance. You can also take a one-hour guided tour of the facility, which recent visitors said was informative and interesting, even if you’re not a Red Sox or baseball fan.

Fenway Park sits next to the Boston University campus and Kenmore Square. The easiest way to get to the ballpark is to take the “T” to Kenmore or Fenway. If you decide to drive, you can pay to park in one of several garages located within a few blocks. Restaurants, bars and a Red Sox gift shop are situated just outside the ballpark on Jersey Street and Lansdowne Street, while restrooms and concession stands are available in Fenway Park.

JOHN F. KENNEDY PRESIDENTIAL MUSEUM

A must for any history buffs or fans of our nation’s 35th president, this excellent library and museum details the life of President John F. Kennedy. Exhibits include his presidential papers; masses of Kennedy memorabilia, including re-creations of his desk in the Oval Office and of the television studio in which he debated Richard M. Nixon in the 1960 election; and artifacts from the U.S. space program. There’s permanent display on the late Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis plus plenty of other artifacts and information about Kennedy’s life and presidency. The building itself is quite striking and was designed by architect I. M. Pei.

Museumgoers say that while the museum is off the beaten path (it sits about 5 miles south of downtown on Columbia Point), it is well worth the trek thanks to the exhibits and staff. However, some wish the exhibits had a more detailed explanation of Kennedy and events during his life. The views from the museum are amazing, add some visitors.

SAMUEL ADAMS BREWERY

Despite its location outside of city center, visiting the Samuel Adams Brewery is a popular stop for beer lovers. This brewery location acts as Samuel Adams’ testing facility for new and specialty brews, which patrons can try. You can also take a guided tour of the facility to learn more about the brewing process.

Whether you’re a local or a tourist, odds are you’ll enjoy a visit to this brewery. Visitors say the staff is knowledgeable, but note there can be long entry lines.
