If you hit the Common via Tremont St, this fountain is way to the left. Its hard to miss. Just follow the tall spire of the imposing 19th century church. Once here, enjoy the coppery hues of this fantastic fountain with its sculptures. Plenty of food carts around. Many restaurants as well. Good to munch on a snack and enjoy views of the golden-domed state house!

One of the most interesting things to find at the Boston Common is the Brewer Fountain situated just off Tremont Street, near the Park Street T Station.This is a bronze replica fountain of the award winning French original at the 1855 Paris Worlds Fair that was financed and installed by Boston merchant Gardner Brewer.The fountain is quite elegant, adorned with mythological gods Neptune, Amphitrite, Acis and the nymph Galatea with a series of water spouts filling the basin which surrounds the fountain structure.Tip: You will pass by the fountain in route to the Massachusetts State House if you are starting the Freedom Trail sightseeing from the nearby Visitor Centre.

Not grand by any stretch of the imagination, but works for an urban park the size of Boston Common. Great photo ops with the Massachusetts State House in the background.

The food trucks here are awesome, plus the tadpole playground, frog pond, and carousel are all right here. You can sit by the fountain and have a bite while your kids play.Plus, so many cool things are accessible from here: the entire theatre district, Boston common, Soldiers and Sailors monument, the great elm, Newbury street shopping, and the flower gardens and swan boats, to name a few.

I went in the summer. Sat outside by the organic coffee/sandwich truck, watching people feed a nearby pigeon. The fountain provides a soothing, relaxing environment after much needed walk around the city.
