Boston, United States
The 'Athens of America' the city's 19th-century glory radiates through its grand architecture, its population of literati, artists and its world-renowned academic and cultural institutions. Genteel streets lined with elegant brick town houses, acres of public greens and gardens, and more colleges than are found in many states: Boston serves up slices of history and culture at every turn. More than ever, America's mother city serves up the bold and new with the old and true few places in America display their history so lovingly.
