I had a meeting in Hynns Convention Center and lived in Hilton Back Bay last week. From my room I could see the dome of the buildings even I did not know what it was then. I squeezed time to visit it and found that it is the First Church of Christ, Scientist, thier headquater in the world. It offers free tours from morning to afternoon. From the tour, I heard that the church was build by Mary Baker Eddy, who is also the founder of daily (now weekly) newspaper of The Christian Science Monitor. It has a huge organ, which is still functional! Very nice and informative tour!

The beauty and peace of the Plaza are enjoyed by many in the community. The church located on the Plaza co-hosts activities with several public organizations nearby. I would highly recommend to anyone that they visit the Plaza and the related buildings and events. Note: Christian Science isnt pushed by anyone on the Plaza. My experience is that unbiased people and/or those who have accurate information about Christian Science arent concerned about it - hence the many positive partnerships between the church and the community.

Architecture is amazing, significant. During summer the reflecting pool is amazing. Theres a fountain to play in. Along Massachusetts ave theres plenty of room to play frisbee and groves of trees to lounge under.

Es muy impresionante todo lo que hizo Mary Baker Eddy, siendo mujer a principios del 1900

Great place to "hang out" during lunch on a nice (weather) day in Back Bay, whether you are at the Convention Center, or just wandering around the neighborhood in tourist mode.

You feel like youre in a different country when youre here based off the architecture. One of my favorite places in Boston.

It just seems natural, and the correct thing to do, to give anything "Christian Science" the worst possible rating.

Cool location although the security is quick to act on anyone flying drones or doing something out of the norm.
