But don’t let all that quaintness fool you. Boston knows how to party and boasts a vibrant nightlife scene with dance clubs and live music venues, where locals are known to get a little raucous in the name of a very good time.

Seaport District
Overview
Located on the south side of Boston, the Seaport District is dominated by large wharves jutting into the bay. Glass-walled high-rises give this stretch an upscale and contemporary feel. But because history is omnipresent throughout this city, you’ll feel that, too (there was a tea party that happened here, let’s recall). The best way to take it all in is at the Lookout Rooftop & Bar — a nearly year-round venue thanks to fire pits — offering 360-degree views.
Known For
Museums, Seafood , Waterfront Views
North End
Overview
This area is Boston’s de facto Little Italy, a charming tangle of narrow streets, lined with old-school Italian coffee shops and restaurants. The North End is also home to Paul Revere’s house and one of Boston’s hottest debates: Who has the best cannolis, Mike's or Modern Pastry? (Italian bakeries are serious business.)
