Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Philadelphia is one of the most visited cities in the United States because of its rich historical past. Philadelphia (also known as Philly) is well known for its role in US history (in particular during colonial and revolutionary times), similar to Washington, D.C. Both the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution were signed here in Independence Hall.

Today's Philadelphia is home to renowned museums, a vibrant nightlife, beloved sports teams, and a thriving restaurant scene that goes beyond the clichéd cheesesteak. Modern skyscrapers, vibrant art murals, old redbrick terrace buildings, and winding cobblestone streets can all be found together in the city. The liberty bell, a cherished symbol of liberty and independence, is housed in the Liberty Bell Pavilion. Mosaic-covered walls (and floors) can be found in Philadelphia's Magic Gardens. Take a journey around Independence National Historical Park in a horse-drawn carriage, or visit the Reading Terminal Market to buy fresh food, Amish bread, clothes, and jewelry. There are many enjoyable activities in Philadelphia.
