Harvard University is a must-visit when in Boston. The campus is beautiful, full of greenery and a strong academic atmosphere. Walking through the grounds, you can truly feel the history and intellectual spirit of the place. Peaceful, inspiring, and deeply rooted in tradition.

Usually very peaceful but at the same time very busy place. Tons of people, students, tourists. The territory is big, includes typical brick 2-3-4 floor buildings, campuses, dormitories, church, and a huge library. Inside the buildings the access is denied.
