Museums worth the parking hassle

12Items

I don't do museums for fun, I do them because my sister-in-law visits every August and somebody's gotta pick the itinerary. Twelve places I'll actually stand in line for, ranked by whether it's worth circling the block three times to park. The MFA's always the safe bet when company's in town, but half these I go back to alone, no complaints, no crockpot waiting.

11Otis House Museum141 Cambridge StreetBostonOld Bulfinch house in the West End, restored down to the wallpaper. Gives you a real sense of what a triple-decker owner's life wasn't like back then.
12Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate210 Morrissey BoulevardBostonRight next to the JFK Library, do them both in one trip. They put you in a mock Senate chamber, which is more fun than it sounds.
