Visit to Prudential Center Skywalk, Boston


Prudential Center Skywalk is one of the prominent places in down town Boston. I would say trip to Boston won't be complete without a visit to this place. Prudential Center is one of the tallest buildings in downtown Boston and the top most floor of this building is dedicated for visitors to take a look at the city (of course with some charge). The official site gives elaborate details on timings to visit, charges applicable, etc. Few check points before you plan your visit:
  • Don't forget to check out this site before you plan your visit as on various occasions different sections of the top floor might be occupied for private programs as well.
  • See to it that the sky is pretty clear on your day of visit unless you want to be in clouds.
The best aspect of this Center is the 360 degree view of Boston city that one gets and the audio recordings that you can listen to while you are watching the views. I was amazed at the speed of the elevators that take you to the top floor. You get the feeling of your ears getting popped.
Once you are at the top floor you need to purchase the ticket to enter the viewing area. There are audio recordings describing the view and its significance. These recordings can be heard via. a headset (which resembles to a telephone headset) available at the location from where you can see the view.
The floor also has got a gift shop having gift articles reflecting typical Boston theme. E.g. cards having clicks of places in Boston, Red socks T-Shirts, etc.
Following are few of the clicks that I was able to grab during my visit to this place.






It is very surprising to see how the view changes after sun light. Below are few clicks that I took after sun light.
