Boston Tea Party Ships and Museum

Boston Tea Party Ships and Museum ranks 5th on the list of best museums to visit in Boston. This Boston museum is an interactive, floating museum located on the Congress Street Bridge. It was named after a protest by the Sons of Liberty on December 16, 1773. The Eleanor and the Beaver, two replica ships from the period, are housed in this Boston museum. It also houses one of the original event's tea chests. This floating Boston museum is unlike anything you've ever seen before. Live performers, high-tech, engaging collections, restored tea ships, and the moving documentary "Let it Begin Here" are just a few of the things you'll see, hear, and feel.

For its visitors, the museum has holographic and film displays, 3D reenactments, and Abigail's Tea Room, where you can taste one of the five original tea flavors thrown overboard, as well as other historically inspired foods and beverages. The Boston Tea Party Ships and Museum also commemorates this significant colonial act by explaining the taxation without representation that led to the event and how it acted as a catalyst for war, so you get a lot of information as well as hands-on experience.
