Faneuil Hall

It's all set around a cobblestone promenade, where jugglers, magicians, and performing musicians serve the public. This place can meet many needs of visitors whether it's exploring, walking, shopping or entertaining, eating, etc...

Known as the "Cradle of Liberty", Faneuil Hall was built in 1740-42 by Peter Faneuil, a Huguenot merchant, to be used as a hall and donated to the city on the condition that it would be is open to the public. The ground floor is still used by the sales counters; Upstairs is the council room, which in the 18th-19th centuries was requisitioned as a meeting room for revolutionaries, and later abolitionists. The 4th floor is the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Museum ( roughly translated as Artillery museum) displaying weapons, uniforms and paintings of important battles.

The adjacent Faneuil Hall Marketplace consists of 3 long halls: Quincy Market (Quincy Market), North Market (North Market), and South Market (South Market), built in the early 19th century. To this day, the markets are still busy. Crowded with a variety of shops, restaurants and exhibitions. On clear days, visitors will easily find street artists performing their talents in the square surrounding the market, and besides the numerous food stalls, there are also shops selling jewelry, clothes, gifts and souvenirs. Here, visitors will be able to sit and eat at one of Boston's historic sites, Durgin-Park .
