    A cold museum that was planted on the map, visited in time, the earth hall can not be photographed, can only take photos in the building outside the museum, you can take maps and brochures, you will choose a time period when buying tickets, five minutes in advance at the door to wait in line, The Earth Hall is composed of 608 stained glass, walk-in star shape, volunteers in the hall will help explain the introduction, match music and LED display, very wonderful experience, more unique and niche museum experience, there are not many tourists on the day of visit, only us a wave of people, Experienced a VIP explanation service, only a wave of tourists, there is a cathedral and library nearby, you can check in together

    This place in Boston is either very literary, suitable for small and fresh shooting, or novel and cool enough, suitable for shooting fashion blockbusters, of course, there is only a pure scenery, the earth hall is one of them!

    This would be a great activity if you have 20 minutes of free time. The Earth Hall is basically a large Earth-shaped room with a map of the continent. This is a very old map because there are still countries like the USSR and Yugoslavia. The room had great sound effects especially when you speak in a low voice. I would recommend this place, it was fun :)

    Visiting the Earth Hall is not allowed to take photographs. There is a photo wall outside. You can have an addiction here. The library was built for the Christian Science Press and publicized the related ideology. There are 608 pieces of stained glass in the library, each representing 10 latitudes and longitudes. The shape and curve of each piece of stained glass are different, and the baking time of each color is different. Italy and Austria have the richest color and the longest time. When it was designed and built in 1935, glass could be replaced in response to changes at the political edge of the world. Now, in order to protect this work of art, it is no longer updated. The last update was in the 1960s. At the same time, with 206 LED lights for its lighting and sphere shape of the unique reflection echo effect, but also people can not help clapping their hands praise.

    About tickets: ordinary tickets: $5 student tickets: $4 open time: Tuesday-Sunday: 10:00-4:00, every 20 minutes a wave of lectures, need to be brought in by the interpreter. The explanations are in English. There are Chinese paper explanatory materials in the scenic spots, which can be obtained from the front desk when purchasing tickets. Food and Beverage: The Earth Hall is located in The Mary Baker Eddy Library, next to the Commercial Street, there will be sporadic coffee and Western restaurants. You can't eat in the Earth Hall.
