About Philadelphia

Steeped in history, ‘Philly’ has fun for everyone under the sun. Visit the Liberty Bell, an international symbol of freedom, and Independence Hall, the birthplace of both the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution. Hit the museum circuit on the Benjamin Franklin Walkway, take a walk through history at Valley Forge National Park or Betsy Ross’ house, and run up the ‘Rocky’ steps made famous in the movie. Once you’ve worked up an appetite, try a Philly cheesesteak, the city’s most famous dish, before checking out what other cuisine is on offer at the Reading Terminal Market.
