Take a Good Walk Boston, Boston, Massachusetts
Boston ranks as one of the best walking cities in the U.S., and it鈥檚 not a surprise that as I take聽a good walk in Massachusetts, I find myself squarely in the middle of Boston. With miles and miles of walking, and a city built to the original human scale, Boston abounds with fantastic jaunts all over the city.

But my walk isn鈥檛 on the Freedom Trail, it starts in Back Bay near Copley Square.
Copley Square, an area situated around Boylston and Exeter, is where my walk begins. On this morning, a bright and cheery summer day, I headed out on Boylston. Of course, I couldn鈥檛 resist the Boston Library and taking a sneak peak at the new renovations on the first floor. Wow, what a treat to experience this world-class library that any reader or learner would fathom over to just sniff the wonderful old library smells!
I rounded the corner on Dartmouth and strided the quick couple of blocks to the Commonwealth Avenue Mall. Avoiding the quicker runners, I ambled myself along the oldest of walks, crowned by Winston Churchill as the grandest boulevard in North America. I can see why!
