In 1822, Boston became a city in the state of Massachusetts, though it was technically a city in its own right as of year 1630. Today, it is a large city located in one of the smallest states of the nation. The climate in this city can be quite unpredictable thanks to the winds that can sweep off of the bordering Atlantic Ocean. Typically, the winters are cold and the summers are rather warm most of the time.
This city is well populated and financially supported by university students and workers in the industry of technology. Bitotechnology is a major industry in the city's financial district, which lies downtown and resembles any modern urban city with lots of tall buildings and its fair share of pollution.
Much of the amusements that excite university students who are new to the city are what grabs the attention of visitors as well. Some of the more noteworthy attractions include the antique shops and clothing boutiques on Charles Street, delicious Asian food in Chinatown, and the very stylish, outdoorsy setting of Back Bay.
For those more in tuned with the academic world, Harvard Square is a hot spot. This is where students from the famous school of Harvard frequently walk through, but it is also a major tourist attraction today.
