They are completely different cities.
Boston is mainly about history. If you enjoy walking, you can have a
pleasant weekend seeing all the things you read about in your 6th grade
American history class. Sure, it is also a big city, you can avoid that or
see it as you chose. Personally I would think about going to Cambridge
rather than Boston.
New York is all about energy. The crowds of people going every whichway.
The cars madly surging. And it goes on for miles and miles and miles. Yes,
there are also historical sites and museums, but with two days you won't
want to spend much time there.
