Rejseplan
Vores historiske tur begynder på et af Bostons mest undervurderede arkitektoniske vidundere: South Station. Vi tager et øjeblik til at analysere den enorme ørn og ur dominerer facaden. Bemærk: Turen er over 1,5 miles lang, med mere end 18 lyd historier, og tager omkring 1 - 2 timer at fuldføre. Ny, livslang adgang, ingen udløb. Brug det når som helst, på enhver tur, så mange gange som du vil.
Når vi går langs Bostons Harborwalk, ser vi ud over vandet for at få et glimt af en faktisk eksplosion fra fortiden: et kolonialskib fyldt med te-kasser! Vi lærer om begivenhederne i Boston's Tea Party, men vi dykker også dybere: hvad der virkelig forårsagede dette oprør? Hvorfor var skatterne så høje? Hvad havde en fjern international krig at gøre med prisen på te i Boston?
Lige overfor gaden finder vi et fantastisk eksempel på moderne arkitektur med Federal Reserve. Når vi går forbi, lærer vi de spændende historier bag det intetsigende navn.
På Russia Wharf er vi officielt i starten af vores Harborwalk-rejse og vores tur ind i fortiden. Vi lærer om den blomstrende internationale handel i kolonitiden .... fundamentet, som senere ville føre til det episke Boston Tea Party.
Havnetårne i brutalistisk stil er ikke tilladt. Brutalisme var hele raseriet i 1970'erne. I dag polariserer stilen observatører. Nogle mennesker ser en slags underlig skønhed i de sparsomme, anmassende strukturer. Andre ser godt almindelige grimme bygninger! I disse dage kan du altid identificere stilen hvor som helst ved dens dystre, fæstningslignende udseende. Vi lærer om tårnene, Bostons kamp mellem overkommelig pris og luksusboliger og et af byens mest ambitiøse projekter: Oprydning af selve havnen.
Vores rejse bringer os til Rowe's Wharf - opkaldt efter en af tesmuglerne, der opmuntrede "Tea Party"! Vi lærer om John Rowe og hans eventyr med loven, når vi går igennem.
The Harbour Hotel er et fantastisk stykke arkitektur, der blander moderne og koloniale stilarter problemfrit. Dens 80 fods kobberkuppel indeholder en glaskupol. Hvis du går til midten af buegangen og kigger lige op, kan du se hele toppen af kuplen til glaskuppelen ovenfor.
Vores tur langs den naturskønne Harborwalk slutter på en af Bostons mest historiske steder: Long Wharf. Fra kolonikampe mod briterne til moderne skarer af turister forbliver denne Wharf et Boston-hotspot. Nyd udsigten og historien, når vi afslutter vores historie på dette naturskønne stop.
Vi nærmer os nu et populært stop i Boston og langs Harborwalk: Akvariet! Denne enorme attraktion er delvist bygget over havnen, hvilket giver akvariet adgang til det naturlige miljø i Bostons havn.
Harborwalk er 43 miles lang, men vi vil fokusere på det historiske Waterfront District fra South Station til Long Wharf. Det er kun omkring 1 mil. Vi vil dække alt fra Boston Tea Party til de nyeste skyskrabere langs kysten.

Park at Harbor Garage for this experience, it starts around the N.E. Aquarium. The walk is like a sidewalk thing around the buildings, right against the water and the buildings so it is right against, it curves with the landscape. VERY nice experience. When you get to one of the spots with the app, it automatically tells you about the area which you arrived. Super interesting and a great job/informative.
