Parks and Museums in the Neighborhood of Boston

There's nothing like crispy, crunchy French bread right from the oven, soft buns with raisins in sweet glaze, chocolate cake, lemon-curd cakes with raspberry jam, fresh salads to order and a huge variety of sandwiches and a jumbo strong coffee for a good day beginning.
That is why we start our day at Flour Bakery + Café, which, among other things, offers a warm welcome and a comfortable atmosphere.

The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum is a perfect place to explore art and history. Isabella Stewart Gardner has assembled an incredible collection of more than 7,500 paintings, sculptures, furniture, textiles, silver, ceramics, 1,500 rare books and 7,000 historical items of ancient Rome, medieval Europe, the Renaissance, Italy, Asia, the Islamic world, France and America of the 19th century.
For an individual tour, you can rent the audio guide, which would interest even those not into art.
Note, that the museum is closed on Tuesdays.
