Staff Tips

    Boston is very easy to walk around, but when your feet get tired make a beeline for the Boston Library on Copley Square. Not only is it incredibly interesting, it's an oasis of calm in this busy city. The Courtyard Café in the central quadrangle is a great place to have lunch or a coffee.
