Back Bay is an officially recognized neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It is most famous for its rows of Victorian brownstone homes — considered one of the best preserved examples of 19th-century urban design in the United States — as well as numerous architecturally significant individual buildings, and cultural institutions such as the Boston Public Library. It is also a fashionable shopping destination (especially Newbury and Boylston Streets, and the adjacent Prudential Center and Copley Place malls) and home to some of Boston's tallest office buildings, the Hynes Convention Center, and numerous major hotels.

Esplanade & Storrow Lagoon
Hanging on the banks of the Charles River is one of our favorite things to do in the Back Bay. Perfect place for a picnic, nap, coffee, run, bike ride or to hang out and watch the sun go up or down. If you're in town for the 4th of July the view of the fireworks is incredible. The Hatch Memorial Shell performance stage has summer concert, there are playgrounds, ballfields, and Community Boating. You can access to the park at Charles Circle, Massachusetts Avenue Bridge, and Beacon Street.
