A 3-day trip to Boston, Massachusetts

Dense colonial history, world-class academia, and walkable harbor neighborhoods without needing a car.

Boston is one of America's oldest and most compact major cities, built at a human scale long before automobiles existed. Its 17th- and 18th-century street grid forces you onto your feet, linking gaslit residential lanes, university campuses, and bustling harbor piers within short walking spans.
