Continue on a panoramic tour passing City Hall, MIT and Cambridge College. Then cross the Charles River and arrive in the center of the intellectual capital of the country. You’ll visit Copley Square with the beautiful Trinity Church, and walk along the 2.5-mile Freedom Trail through Boston Common Park.
