点评:The Boston Common gets most of the ink for its history, but the best park in the city is the Boston Public Garden. This 24 acre park was designed as a civic green space park with a 4 acre pond and true gardens unlike its neighbor, the Common. The park dates back to 1837 when the mud flats of the Back Bay were drained and converted to this public space amenity as the city began its expansion with a new neighborhood.
Unlike the Common which is really just common space, the Public Garden is a true garden/park with civic features like statues, pond, bridge and planned botanicals like trees and flower gardens. The best known feature is the pond with the famous Swan Boats. The is also a great bridge that spans the pond and is made for pictures. The children's story "Make Way for Ducklings" takes place here, so it is only appropriate the statue is here in the park as well. However, the most popular and photographed statue is also here, the one of George Washington on horseback with the backdrop of downtown behind. Unfortunately, there is construction around the statue, so the picture is blocked and not as clean. Still, it is a great site.
Our visit here included a Swan Boat ride and great pictures of the group in several areas of the park. We also got great photos of the statue and true Boston attraction. Make time on your Boston stay to visit the Public Garden. It is the BEST park in Boston and a MUST see.
翻译:波士顿公园因其历史而备受关注,但这座城市最好的公园是波士顿公共花园。这个占地 24 英亩的公园被设计为一个市民绿地公园,拥有一个 4 英亩的池塘和真正的花园,与它的邻居波士顿公园不同。该公园的历史可以追溯到 1837 年,当时后湾的泥滩被排干并改造成这个公共空间设施,因为这座城市开始扩张新社区。
与波士顿公园不同,波士顿公园实际上只是公共空间,而公共花园是一个真正的花园/公园,拥有市民特色,如雕像、池塘、桥梁和规划中的植物,如树木和花园。最著名的特色是池塘和著名的天鹅船。还有一座横跨池塘的大桥,非常适合拍照。儿童故事“为小鸭让路”就发生在这里,所以这座雕像也非常适合放在公园里。然而,最受欢迎和拍照最多的雕像也在这里,那就是乔治·华盛顿骑马的雕像,背后是市中心。不幸的是,雕像周围正在施工,所以照片被遮挡,不太清晰。不过,这是一个很棒的景点。
我们在这里参观了天鹅船,并在公园的几个区域拍摄了一组很棒的照片。我们还拍到了雕像和真正的波士顿景点的精彩照片。在波士顿逗留期间,抽出时间参观公共花园。这是波士顿最好的公园,一定要去看看。
