From the 3-mile pathway, you can get some exercise and catch breath-taking views of Cambridge, especially when at sunset. Also, film buffs will recognize the esplanade as the setting for such Boston-centric films as *Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind* and *Good Will Hunting.*   ## Boston Common and Public Garden ![Best places to walk around in Boston](https://mostlymultiples.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Boston%20Common%20and%20Public%20Garden-1.jpg?width=300&name=Boston%20Common%20and%20Public%20Garden-1.jpg)The Boston Common and Public Gardens offer 50 acres of greenspace, combining a portion of The Freedom Trail (see below) with a bucolic setting and destination for wildlife lovers. The perimeter of the Boston Commons is approximately 1.5 miles, so this is a perfect destination to burn some calories in the heart of the city. Once your walk is over, be sure to take a breather at the Robin Williams Bench dedicated to the late actor.   ## Freedom Trail ![Best places to walk around in Boston](https://mostlymultiples.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Freedom%20Trail.jpg?width=300&name=Freedom%20Trail.jpg)If you want to learn about Boston’s colonial history and role in the formation of the United States, the [Freedom Trail](https://thefreedomtrail.org/trail-sites) offers a self-guided walking tour through the heart of the city.
