Discover the city of Boston

Boston, Founding City of Modern America
Capital of Massachusetts, Boston blends history, culture, and innovation. Less well known than New York, it nevertheless delves into the heart of American roots, from the Mayflower to the Boston Tea Party. The Freedom Trail traces 4 km of history, while the city keeps the memory of JFK alive.
Famous for its oyster bars, lobster, clam chowder, and Boston Cream Pie, the culinary scene combines local traditions with international influences. Its architecture reflects this diversity: Irish and Italian neighborhoods, repurposed brick warehouses, modern skyscrapers, and historic mansions.
