More About the City

About Philadelphia, PA

The "City of Brotherly Love" is also known as the birthplace of the nation. From its early beginnings as home of the first US government, Philadelphia has grown into the fifth largest city in America, offering tourists world-class entertainment, high culture, big-time sports and, of course, history. No first-time visitor should miss a trip to the revered Independence Hall or Liberty Bell Pavilion. Independence National Historical Park is said to be "America's most historic square mile." Other fun activities include a bike ride across the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, a run up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art (à la Rocky), or a stroll through Fairmount Park – the largest municipal park in the world. Music fans can check out Zanzibar Blue, perhaps the hottest jazz club in town. And sports fans can cheer on the Eagles, Phillies, Flyers and 76ers.

Philadelphia, PA Factoid
When Philadelphia comes to mind, so does food. Good food. Known as the "junk food capital of the world" Philadelphia boasts favorites such as cheesesteaks, Tastykakes, peanut chews, and America's first bubble gum – Double Bubble. However, Philadelphia has expanded its culinary scene and offers an abundance of choices to suit everyone's taste. A booming convention city, Philadelphia can get pretty crowded with out-of-towners, so be sure to make reservations ahead and confirm once you get into town.
