The cute statues of rabbit and turtle. This work was done by the same artist who created the ducks statues in Boston Public Garden!
Hey, this weekend, it's all about the Boston Marathon. 🤙🤙🤙😎
Best of Luck to all the runners, may you be as swift as the God Mercury with wings upon your feet.
And whichever place you finish, you are all WINNER 🤙🤙🤙🧞♂️

Very cute place to visit in Boston, a little dirty weird environment sometimes but may be worth a visit! Copley and trinity are right there too so the place as a whole is a win in my book! Plus there is the BPL and restaurants galore on Boylston so you'll probably be in this area anyway!
Pretty cool gem i found just walking around Boston. Worth checking out. Its easy to find if walking around.
Nice spot around Copley square which is already crowded with several beautiful tourist spots
The sculptures are a great symbol for the end of the Boston Marathon. There are dining tables ate close by and a lot of people around so don't be surprised if you don't locate them right away. After checking out the sculptures, go check out many of the historic places to visit nearby, such as the library, churches, Copley area and over to Boston Common.
Very beautiful. It is simply a statue of a tortoise and a rabbit, But the surrounding area enhances its view. Recommend going after dusk.
An interesting pair of statue figures you can see in Boston are that of the Tortoise and Hare located near the pool on Copley Square. These are another local creation of Nancy Schön (1993) who also gave Boston the Making Way for the Ducks statues in the Boston Public Garden.
Like the duck statues, the Tortoise and Hare figures are a neat thing to see for families. Here you see the hare causally resting and scratching its ear while the tortoise, just ahead, labours away towards the long and unlikely endeavour of winning the race. Yet on he goes!
The sculptures are a tribute to those who participate in the annual Boston Marathon race. As such, they are a nice reminder of the youthful story as well as a befitting symbol of marathons which require steady, hard work and endurance.
