STRANGE AND WONDERFUL

Boston is a very clean city. There are many parks with wonderful green spots, wich unlike other countries (Spain) are cleen and there is no rubish, and this makes that you can relaxe them and have a nap. This is not in all the city, in the neiberhoods of poor people there aren’t many cleen places.

Also there are some places wich every thing is strange, everyone in mcdonalds, everyone is fat, and at some hours you mustn’t talk to anyone because the people are concentrated into their calorie hamburguer.

HISTORY

Several prehistoric Native American archaeological sites that were excavated in the city have shown that the peninsula was inhabited as early as 5000 BC. Boston was founded on September 17, 1630, by Puritan colonists from England. In 1822, the citizens of Boston voted to change the official name from "the Town of Boston" to "the City of Boston", and on March 4, 1822, the people of Boston accepted the charter incorporating the City. By the 1970s, the city's economy boomed after 30 years of economic downturn. A large number of high rises were constructed in the Financial District and in Boston's Back Bay during this time period.
