Super cute and such amazing staff. The globe is a iconic done which also counts as a whispering museum for the amazing architecture and materials used to make the room

Beautiful architecture, a reflecting pool, kept immaculately clean. If you are visiting Boston, do not miss it. Totally free to walk around, and to go inside.

Absolutely beautiful — one of my favorite areas in Boston. This is part of Back Bay, next to Prudential T stop. There’s a lot to do & see in the vicinity in addition to the Plaza and church buildings. “To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, the day is big with blessings.” -Mary Baker Eddy

Rare open space with a huge water area in the middle of the city. New and old buildings mixed together. Water fountain and music shows before 9pm. Now part of Northeastern University campus.

I was taking my dog for a walk. Then a creepy security guard. Tried to attack me. Unnecessary ! We where by the fountain. You have the right to film your own dog.

We decided to visit the Christian Science Plaza aka Mary Baker Eddy Library for the purpose of seeing the Mapparium which is the main attraction for most visitors, yet they do not want you to take pictures inside the globe. Unlike most reviews, we were not beat on the overhead or cornered by staff talking about religion, it is far from that all. The cost was only $6 per adult and free for kids 17 and under. The Mapparium is like walking inside a huge globe so if you are claustrophobic then this may not be for you, but overall, it was a great experience.

Not to be missed! Short on time, only walked past the Plaza and refelcting pool. Had not seen it for 48 years. Still as beautiful. Will make time to take in the Mary Baker Library, etc... next time.

beautiful especially at night, just be careful walking on the fountain. I didn’t know what it was because there was no water and it just looked like flooring but I almost got arrested. 10/10 experience!

Nothing really spectacular about this place but it’s relaxing and the fountain is fun to watch.

It was beautiful as always. Unfortunately it was closed during the Thanksgiving Saturday this year so I wasn't able to go inside, but it's always a lovely stroll around its buildings and reflecting pool.Looking forward to going inside someday, I imagine it's quite spectacular :)
