Public Garden


Arlington, Boylston, Charles and Beacon streets, Boston, MA
Tel: (617) 522-1966

Just across Charles Street from the Boston Common, this park is elegantly landscaped with flower beds, lagoons, walking paths and statues, including a notable monument of George Washington on a horse. You can watch couples posing for their wedding photos every summer weekend. The children's story Make Way for Ducklings took place here, and there is a popular sculpture of the ducklings in the northeast corner of the park. A ride in the famous Swan Boats is an essential experience for any visitor. Excursions on the swanboats will begin for the new season on April 17.
