Visiting Boston

Welcome

Dear SMA Student,

Welcome to Boston, a city that is rich in history and offers something for everyone. One of the wonderful things about this city is it is a walkable city. You can walk from one neighborhood in Boston to another -- the North End to the South End, or from Boston Common to Cambridge Common, in an hour or so without worrying about any hills. It is as vibrant and diverse as any city in the US, and yet it retains that small-town feel.

What follows is a list of recommended entertainment by subway stop that we believe would prove useful and save you time in planning and preparing for your trip. Kindly note that although there are a lot more things to see, do and restaurants to dine, in Boston, the places that we have listed are the places that MIT students enjoy.

We look forward to meeting you here in person at MIT.

Best regards,

The SMA Staff
