Boston can reasonably claim to have something for every type of visitor. As one of the few cities that has a sports team in all four major sports, as well as being both a historical and modern city, Boston can cater for every taste and interest. A trip to Boston can be either a holiday in itself, or you can use Boston as a base for exploring the rest of the Eastern Seaboard, New England in particular.

If you are interested in sports, then Boston can offer you a range of options, depending on the season. For baseball, the Red Sox and their famous Fenway Park ground are steeped in history as one of the founding ball clubs of the Major League. If you prefer basketball, then the Boston Celtics are one of the primary teams in the NBA. For American football fans, the New England Patriots are also based in Boston, and the Boston Bruins provide the Ice Hockey contingent. Regardless of the time of year, one of these teams will be playing, and you can find tickets online in advance of your trip.

If history and culture are more your areas of interest, then you can explore how the city has developed its own personality throughout history. As one of the important cities in the American Revolution and a large player within the Declaration of Independence, many historical buildings remain in the city and are open to the public. Boston’s seafront is home to the famous ‘Boston Tea Party’ that helped to begin the American War of Independence. Famous buildings such as Faneuil Hall and the Boston State House also played pivotal roles in American History, and both are based in Boston City Centre, meaning that you can easily visit both of them in the same day, and on foot.

Despite the long history of Boston, it is a fully modern city with a range of amenities. Getting to Boston is simple with the International Airport, and it's also easy to access nearby cities such as New York and Washington D.C. Boston Hotels are modern and cater to every range of customer, from budget hotels to more exclusive ones. Many of them will be able to advise you on sights and help you to book tickets for museums or sporting events.

Thus, Boston is a modern American city, although one with a unique heritage, making it an interesting and vibrant destination. It is one of the more visited cities in America, and for good reason.
