A historic church with a large central tower and multiple spires, surrounded by modern buildings and a public square with people and greenery.

Back Bay

Head to Back Bay for Victorian brownstone homes, hip coffee joints and a shopping district that rivals Manhattan’s 5th Avenue.

A city skyline at dusk with illuminated buildings reflecting on the water, a prominent bridge, and a large chain barrier along the waterfront.

Seaport District

Once known as strong working-class neighbourhood, South Boston has turned into a haven for young professionals.

A large brick building with a golden dome, a flagpole with the American flag, and a statue in front.

Beacon Hill
