"You go for Harvard, you stay for... " a Cambridge Travel Page by Jefie

Located across the Charles River from downtown Boston, Cambridge is first and foremost known as the home of Harvard University. Most people who travel to Boston will plan on spending at least an afternoon in Cambridge to tour around the campus, but there actually is more to this charming city than just the university. With its large student population (Cambridge is also home to the Masschusetts Institute of Technology, or MIT) come many book stores, bars and cafes, and the city takes pride in its harmonious blend of multi-culture, classic culture and counter-culture. Truly worth going across the bridge!
