There’s never a shortage of awesome things to do in Philadelphia— but there are some things you just can’t miss while you’re here. Whether it’s running like Rocky, refueling with a cheesesteak and then wandering along Boathouse Row or touring Independence Hall, devouring a roast pork sandwich at Reading Terminal Market and then visiting an amazing museum on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, these are the experiences that make our city stand out among the rest. The Benjamin Franklin Parkway, The Franklin Institute, The Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, Ruth and Raymond G. Perelman Building and Art museum. For an iconic Philly experience, visit the corner of South 9th Street and Passyunk Avenue, where rivals Geno’s Steaks and Pat’s King of Steaks feed the masses daily. Independence National Historical Park, and guided tours are available year-round. Free, timed tickets are required and can be picked up at the Independence Visitor Centerbut plan ahead — tours fill fast!

Well, it depends on what you like. The Art museum is a stone's throw away from Barnes. Also, the Rocky statue is at the bottom of the museum, free to see. Love Park is newly renovated. Food is everywhere. All sorts but if you're into Philadelphia then I must invite you to the National Constitution Center or the Liberty Bell. If that's not enough,and you'd like some excitement. Try One Liberty to the observation area and get a birds eye view of the city. Maybe the zoo for the kids. Definitely look for Groupons for all activities. Good luck and have fun.
