As one of Americas oldest public parks and one of the main features of Bostons city centre, Boston Common is an interesting spectacle. The park is full of history with monuments such as burial ground of participants in the Boston Tea Party, plaque for the Great Elm Tree, Park Street Station (the first subway station in America) and many other memorials from the 19th century. For recreational activities, the Frog Pond plays the role of an open ice skating rink in the winters and the softball field in the southwest corner provides a leisurely spot. What makes this public park even more interesting is the set of events that happen here each year such as the Commonwealth Shakespeare Company's Shakespeare, Boston Lyric Operas Outdoor Opera Series and Ancient Fishweir Project Installation Event. These events feed life into the Boston Common as an important place in the city centre and a meeting point for history and art in a longstanding tradition. All of this makes Boston Common a place that you should visit on your trip to Boston.
