Such a fun thing to do with friends or family!! Open 7 days a week from Nov. 29th-Dec. 22nd. Lots of local vendors
SoWa Winter Festival - SoWa Boston
I could spend all day here! So many historical and beautiful pieces. Whether you love art or just looking for something to do, the MFA is definitely worth a visit. It's in a great area too!
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Great if you're only looking to fill a few hours!! Lots of popular shops like Lush, Glossier, Urban Outfitters, H&M, and lots of boutiques too.
Newbury Street
Hands down the most unique museum in the city!! Known for the beautiful courtyard. Every third Thursday of the month, they stay open late and feature live music in the courtyard as well as food and drinks.
Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum
Great to stop for a bite to eat! I always hit Quincy when I'm in Boston. Lots of options from lobster rolls to desserts!
Quincy Market
Right in the Quincy Market area! Some nice shops like Urban Outfitters, The Black Dog, Crocs, etc.
Faneuil Hall Marketplace
If you're looking for a luxurious place to stay, the Fairmont Copley Plaza is perfect!!
Fairmont Copley Plaza Boston
Almost everything in Seaport has been built in the last 10 years, so it's a really cool comparison to the rest of the historical city! If you're looking for trendy restaurants and outdoor attractions, this is it!
South Boston Waterfront
Of course I have to recommend Fenway Park! Even if you're not a Sox fan, the historical energy is so unique. Tours are also offered daily year-round.

The cutest cafe ever, super aesthetically pleasing and great coffee! Lots of options from their bakery too. They have a couple throughout the city
Tatte Bakery & Cafe
Super unique layout and great food! I've been here a couple times, gives off a super high-end vibe but the prices are pretty good for Boston.
Sonsie
I went here with my friends and we all loved it!! We had a great waiter and the prices weren't too bad for the city. If you like Italian, definitely worth a visit.
