The Gardener museum is a lovely space that feels like an Italian palazzo. All of the art is displayed in what used to be Isabella’s home—it’s a fun haphazard journey through the collection and the garden is beautiful. Also the site of the 1990 art heist, you can see empty frames where the art was sadly never recovered.

“Top-tier art viewing experience! I'm so glad we used our limited free time in Boston to visit this gem. Those stunning courtyard flowers? they're potted, so the courtyard looks incredible no matter what time of year you go.”
