The second day in Boston


Today I got up at 9 o'clock and I had breakfast in the hotel restaurant.
After I went to Charlestown, a part of the city located on a peninsula north of Boston proper between the Charles River and the Mystic River. I saw the Bunker Hill Monument commemorating the famous Battle of Bunker Hill.
I went to S. Mary's Church (1887-1893) that is considered one of the masterpieces of Patrick Keely. It was very charming and interesting. I had lunch in Abe & Louis in 793 Boylston Street, Back Bay.
In the afternoon I saw The Massachusetts State House, also called Massachusetts Statehouse or the New State House, the state capitol and seat of government of the Commonweath of Massachusetts. It is located in the Beacon Hill neighborhood. The building houses the Massachussets General Court (state legislature) and the offices of the Govern of Massachussets.
After I had dinner in the hotel restaurant and now I'm going to bed because I'm very tired..
