Public Garden
The Public Garden is Boston's great flower garden, just beside the Common. It was the first public botanical garden in America.

State House
This is the Massachusetts government building, at the top of Beacon Hill. Here the two assemblies that make the laws of Massachusetts meet, and here the governor works.
Old State House

The sights along the route
The walk starts from a flower garden with a pond and a family of bronze ducks. It climbs through the brick lanes of Beacon Hill up to a golden dome. Then it heads down toward old buildings, a covered market and the little streets of the North End. You will discover the rest stop by stop.
There are seven stops and about two and a half kilometers on foot. It takes almost three hours of play, plus your breaks. The route doesn't return to the starting point and ends near the subway.
History and culture, lived through play
Every stop tells a piece of history. You will meet architects, metalworkers, gardeners and writers of children's books. There are questions about art and nature, riddles, anagrams and little logic puzzles. The questions are designed for children aged 9 and up and for their parents.
You don't need to know everything already. Many answers can be found by looking carefully at what is in front of you, others by reasoning together. That way a walk becomes a challenge to play as a team.
An adventure that continues
After the hunt, Boston still has plenty to offer families. On the harbor there is a big aquarium devoted to sea creatures. On the Charles River there is a large science center with hands-on experiments.
Many families of Italian origin have lived in the North End for over a century, with their pastry shops. Every neighborhood has its own story: the next hunt is waiting for you.
