MFA is one of the three largest art galleries in the United States, and has a lot of wonderful works. As a result, the admission fee is also more expensive than other art museums, but I was able to save the admission fee after I went to Juneteenth commemorative free admission day! You can check the admission schedule on the website, so it is recommended to check in advance. Especially Monet's works were so pretty!

There are many incredibly good works and the atmosphere was so good that it was an individually built museum. Botanical garden? garden? It's a place made with a concept, so it's good to take pictures :) It's one of the museums I want to go to next time because the concept of the garden changes every time!

When I was in this museum by my little friend Amway, I didn’t care at first. I felt that the museum on campus was difficult to create too high a surprise. I didn’t expect to be beaten in the face when I went there. I was very happy to visit with my friends. I couldn’t stop at all. , All kinds of exotic exhibits, Boston's favorite museum list also has a place at the Harvard Museum of Natural History. The museum was founded in 1998 by three different themes of botanical specimens, comparative zoology and mineral geology. The earliest botanical specimen museum was established, and at the beginning of the museum, more than 200,000 botanical specimens donated by Harvard professor Asa Gray were established. The Mineral and Geological Museum was donated in 1977, and the last was the Comparative Zoological Museum, which was built in 1859. Each theme pavilion has wonderful places, each pavilion has a happy float, the glass flower display of the botanical specimen museum, the comparison of zoological specimens, only you can't think of, there is no here that does not exist, the favorite is the mineral geology museum, all kinds of exquisite ore, It feels like few other museums have seen such a large scale and exquisite.

Located in a museum next to Boston's harbor, the classical style building is unforgettable at a glance. The ticket office at the door, the staff are also wearing classical costumes, and there will be cruise ships in the museum to introduce the harbor.

I was shocked by MIT's little friend Amway's campus museum. I had punched in the museum on the Harvard campus before. I felt shocked, especially the stones of all kinds, which made people see. So I decisively added the MIT museum to the itinerary list and found a weekend to check in. Compared with the Harvard Museum, the museum has a lot fewer tourists, and the museum is full of science and technology atmosphere. All kinds of technology are full of design displays in the museum. It is also very shocking to come for the first time. It is more suitable for small partners with a science and technology background to visit. After visiting the museum, you can visit the MIT campus on the way, and the teaching building does not need a student card to enter.

Compared to the science museums in New York and Washington, this science museum in Boston is a bit deserted and niche. The museum is built on the banks of the Charles River. The scenery is naturally nothing to say, and it is also very beautiful. This museum combines natural museum, science museum, planetarium equal to one, it can be said that Boston is very suitable for family and children to travel to the museum series. Here you can also see the research results displayed by major technology companies and top universities, and most of the exhibits are also interactive multimedia design. Each pavilion has students of all sizes and sizes. I feel that the theme content of the pavilion is still quite scientific and technological. As a science fair The tradition of the museum, how can the dinosaur model of the domineering support field be less, so the museum here must also arrange a wave. There are also two models of the Tyrannosaurus that are specially designed by roommates outside the museum. The pavilion is also interesting and fun, from black bears to beavers, showing the evolution of New England's ecosystem and geographical environment to check the biological impact. The museum also has a special interactive area where you can touch the fur of beavers in the Americas

It turns out that there is no small pot friend, so you don’t have to punch in a museum lol. I didn’t know what I was thinking at the time. After visiting Fan Pier Park, I wanted to say to visit this museum. I also felt what the children’s museum here was. The experience, Will it be a feeling like the science and technology museum that I liked to visit when I was a child? Hahahaha, it turns out that I still want more. The museum is really built for children, full of childishness. If you want to find a highlight for the museum, it is probably the color sense of each kind of collision in each pavilion. It is colorful and has a summer feeling. And most of the entertainment facilities here are interactive, and I feel that children will like it very much. If you come, no children will go together, the museum clerk will ask for a certificate here, and then take it away when you leave the museum. Probably very few people will make a special trip to punch in the children's museum. It is highly recommended to visit here in person. There is also a Japanese courtyard residential park in the museum. You need slippers to enter. The layout of the exhibition hall is more interesting.

When we went to the Constitution Museum, we couldn't go in for the time being because of the project. It's a small regret. This is very good in American history. I used to expedition to many places in the world. It is also good to stroll around the scenery.

This isnt a museum to walk around and see artefacts. You watch a story of the Salem witch trials and then get the evolution of the witch. It’s a good overall experience, but not what I expected. Tip! The entry ticket gets you access to discounts for other things around the town
