EXPLORE Boston Boston Museums Fenway Park the Museum of Fine Arts the Freedom Trail

As attendees of NCSC24, your visit to Boston extends beyond the conference halls into a city pulsating with historical charm and cutting-edge innovation. Start your journey by immersing yourself in the rich history of the American Revolution along the famed Freedom Trail. Wander through cobblestone streets, and stand where patriots once stood at iconic sites like the Massachusetts State House and Paul Revere’s House. For a taste of classic Boston, catch a baseball game at the historic Fenway Park, where the cheers of Red Sox fans echo through the nation’s oldest baseball stadium.

Boston’s cultural tapestry is showcased brilliantly at the Museum of Fine Arts and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. These institutions house world-class art collections that span centuries and continents, offering a unique blend of traditional and contemporary masterpieces. Explore Copley Square‘s architectural marvels, dine in the North End for delectable Italian cuisine, or take a scenic harbor cruise. Boston invites you to unlock its secrets, blending the old and the new in a city where every corner tells a story.
