Tufts Medical Center MBTA Station – Orange & Silver Line

With orange line access and convenient placement in the middle of many hotspots in Chinatown, this station is a frequent stop after grabbing a bite in one of the nearby restaurants.
It is never really all that crowded, and I love that you can access both the inbound and outbound trains pretty easily from the same entrance, unlike other stations that make you traverse through a labyrinth of vague directional signs and spend at least five minutes just to switch sides – I’m looking at you Downtown Crossing.
The station is a closed off one, i.e. it has a ceiling, so the heat can definitely build up in the summer, unfortunately. However, to be fair, this can be viewed as a good thing in the winter!
I’d definitely recommend using this station to get to the Chinatown hotspots!
