Quincy Market / Faneuil Hall is very touristy, but well-worth the visit. Faneuil Hall was built in 1742 by Peter Faneuil, Boston’s wealthiest merchant, as a gift to the city. This historic building was home to merchants, fisherman, and meat and produce sellers. It also provided a platform for many of the country’s most famous orators. Today the Market is an urban marketplace that has many shops, restaurants and outdoor entertainment. Unfortunately my favorite place, Durgin-Park, closed in early 2019 after being in business for 192 years.
