Located across the Charles River from Boston, Cambridge is home two of the world’s most prestigious educational institutions – Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Cambridge has both tree-lined side streets and more urban feeling city squares.  Harvard Square has cafes such as Crema, bars like Russell House Tavern, restaurants such as Alden and Harlow, and world class bookstores like the Harvard Coop. Kendall Square is one of the most innovative neighborhoods on the planet with its high concentration of biotech and life sciences companies. Central Square located between Harvard and Kendall has emerged as a destination for foodies with restaurants like Little Donkey and Pammy’s.  Straddling the border between Boston and Cambridge is the Museum of Science, a science museum and indoor zoo.
