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!

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

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.

Castle on the coast: history and culture coexist with Jay Chou's wedding envy, dreamy wedding scene is impressive - white doves, balloons, flowers and castle. I thought, this is probably my dream wedding! The dream of the wedding room can only think about it. Fortunately, I have recently come to Boston to play. Since I can't hold a wedding in the castle, I can go shopping all over the castles. There are too many castles in the city of Perth, and I am dizzy. The impression is more profound is Hammond Castle, it is said that the local tyrants sent a wedding room to his wife, envy and jealousy! Hammond Castle is now a museum, but this does not prevent its "beauty". The castle is located on the coast, and you can enjoy the various displays in the castle and feel the gentle sea breeze. The castle is medieval style and is perfect for taking pictures! There are many people queuing up to take pictures in front of the suspension bridge in front of the castle gate. If you want to take wedding photos, you can consider it here! There are many exhibitions inside, mostly Renaissance cultural relics, you can feel the charm of Western culture. Tips: 1. Far from Boston city, it is best to rent a car. 2. The castle is relatively large and suitable for slowly visiting.

Hawthorne's seven-cornered building is still a book, and this building is also famous for its original works. The building area of the whole building is not small, and some details of the sculpture can be considered exquisite.

The museums around Boston that are worth punching in, naturally have to mention this Peabody Essex Museum. For this museum, it is worth a special trip from Boston to Salem town for 40 minutes. This museum is also the oldest museum in Xuancun, United States. A "flying house" in the museum also made the museum famous. The only Qing Dynasty residential building in the United States, the museum spent 7 years moving this house from China. The wooden parts, bricks, furniture, The stone boards and other pieces were all shipped to the United States together, and each part was marked. It was opened to the public in 2003 to visit the museum, which also houses a variety of Asian cultural artworks. Few museums in the United States see such a large number of Asian collections. It was still more shocking, and when I came to visit, I also happened to catch up with the Forbidden City Cultural Relics Exhibition, which was more cordial when I visited. Their family will launch special exhibitions with different themes from time to time. Before visiting, you can log in to the official website to check the current exhibition theme.
