Boston has many important streets and squares, amongst them the Copley Square is certainly worth a mention. Nestled in the busy city neighborhood of Back Bay, this square is named after a renowned and talented painter, namely John Singleton Copley; it is also home to this painter's bronze statue. Copley is bounded by many tourist attractions that include Boston Public Library, John Hancock Tower, Bostix Kiosk, Museum of Fine Arts and Old South Church. However, the modern designer boutiques like Mont Blanc, Chanel and Bvlgari add a contemporary touch to this otherwise historic space. It also hosts Farmers Market from May till Thanksgiving. While you are in town, do make a point to visit this city square and the nearby landmarks.

Beautiful place to visit very interesting albeit being a very rainy day today Boston is such an interesting place
MoreWhen visiting Boston, Copley square is a must see. A great green space with some amazing architecture. The Boston Pride parade started here, which is what I was in town for, and it was an awesome spot to view it. Floats, bands, shade, food, all the fun you could ever ask for! I especially enjoyed the block party here that ran all afternoon and evening until 8pm. If you like libraries (which I love) this is also your spot as the best one I have ever been to is just across the street. You could spend a lifetime in there. The church is pretty cool, but the fee was kind of pricey to get in so I passed on that and instead had a great lunch for the same price down the street as there are many great restaurants in the area. Enjoy your time here!
MoreWe were here during the World Cup. They had a large FIFA soccer ball set up for photo ops!
MoreA very nice part of the city. You will find the public library here as well as the Christian Science complex. Some skyscrapers are here and there is a big park in the center for recreation. Busy part of town.
MoreThe square is one of the premier public spaces of the Back Bay area, framed by Trinity Episcopal church, Old South Church, Boston Public Library and the John Hancock building. Currently, the square was under construction during our visit which detracted from the view of Trinity Church. However, it is a place that should be seen on any visit to Boston due to the importance of the buildings that surround it.
