Things to do in Boston, Massachusetts (MA): The Best Shopping

October 28, 2021 Marissa Gamble

Walk the Freedom Trail the first time you visit Boston and you'll quickly get a sense of this coastal city's revolutionary spirit and history. But make sure you also explore some of Boston's fine museums (try the Isabella Stewart Gardner, featuring masterpieces displayed in their collector's mansion) and old neighborhoods (like the North End, Boston's Little Italy). You can't claim to have experienced real Boston culture, though, until you've watched a Red Sox game from the bleachers.

What a little gem this shop is, Beautiful location, just two blocks from Park Street Station, and one from the Granary Burying Ground, it is a small store crowded with pens, pencils watches and other similar items, with an amazing collection of fountain pen and high-priced pens of all sorts, but affordable ones are in stock as well. I bought one for $20. They fix pens, too. The expert staff is splendid. Don't know how they afford so many folks, but I'm glad they do. It reminds me of shops from my youth, in NYC. A touch of old Boston, back when pens were prized and words were plentiful..
