Rose Kennedy Greenway
About
The Rose Kennedy Greenway is a free public park in downtown Boston made up of five distinct parks, running from Chinatown to the North End. Visitors can stroll through gardens, cool off in water features, browse markets, grab a bite from food trucks and visit beer gardens. Public art is part of the experience, and the one-of-a-kind Greenway Carousel, filled with creatures from the Boston area, is a draw for the whole family.
The Greenway is open every day and invites visitors to stroll, relax and spend time on the grass. A self-guided tour helps visitors explore at their own pace, and monthly event roundups list dance sessions, fitness classes and other programs. The organization also marks heritage months and local history, including the Immigrant History Trail and the story of busing in Chinatown in 1975, through its posts and programming.
