Where's Harvard University?

Hey guys! So, I'm thinking about touring a few schools this summer. Harvard is definitely on my list. Can anyone tell me where Harvard University is located? Also, what are some points of interest I could check out in the local area?

Harvard University is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which is part of the Greater Boston area. The campus is a sight to behold with historic buildings dotting the University Yard.

Cambridge is a vibrant city, known for its intellectual vitality and cultural richness. It's a perfect balance of city life and academia. While you're in the area, you could check out Harvard Square, which is a lively hub teeming with bookstores, shops, and eateries where students often hang out.

A must-visit in this area is the Harvard Book Store (not officially related to the university), a local institution known for its extensive collection of books, including rare and hard-to-find works. Then there's the Harvard Art Museums, which is home to an impressive array of art collections.

Of course, more broadly, Boston's historic charm is right next door and can't be missed. The city is famous for its Freedom Trail, Fenway Park, the Boston Common, and an assortment of museums. Additionally, if you're into seafood, trying some local dishes like Lobster Rolls or Clam Chowder is a must!

Remember to check if the campus is open for visitors considering current circumstances. The in-person admissions information sessions and tours may be paused, but you can usually find virtual resources to get a feel of the campus environment and student life.
