About

Botanical Beauty

The Public Garden, established in 1837, was the first public botanical garden in America. Adjacent to Boston Common, this park is celebrated for its meticulously maintained flower beds, weeping willows, and winding paths.

One of the garden's most iconic features is the Swan Boats, which have been operating on the lagoon since 1877. The park also houses several notable statues, including the famous 'Make Way for Ducklings' sculpture, making it a beloved destination for families and nature lovers.
