Welcome to Philadelphia!
Philadelphia is famously known as the birthplace of American democracy. Destinations such as the Liberty Bell, the Betsy Ross House, Benjamin Franklin's Grave, and the Edgar Allen Poe National Historial Site are a testiment to just how important and interesting the history of Philadelphia is. The city is made up of many different neighborhoods, each with its own culture, ethnicity in some cases, and shopping districts. The city is loved world-wide for its famous local cuisines, its vast selection of art and theatre venues, and some of the highest quality universities in the world, such as the University of Pennsylvania. The suburbs of Philadelphia offer a wonderful lifestyle for families. Chester, Montgomery, and Bucks Counties surround Philadelphia and offer quaint towns and villages for travel and exploration as well as for residential enjoyment. Chadds Ford and Kennett Square are the areas for the world-renowned Longwood Gardens and Chadds Ford Winery. The famous King of Prussia Mall is a short drive west of the city. Going further west, Lancaster, Gettysburg, Hershey, and Harrisburg are wonderful areas to explore. Manayunk and Chestnut are hip, eclectic towns located north of Philadelphia. Bucks Country is known for its covered bridges and small quaint tourist towns, such as Doylestown, New Hope, Newtown, and Yardley. Battleship New Jersey and the Camden Waterfront are both in Camden, New Jersey which is right across the Ben Franklin Bridge.
For art, theatre, music, and sports, Philadelphia is one of the best cities in the world. The Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Rodin Museum, the Michener Museum are all excellent venues featuring special shows almost monthly. For theatre, the Walnut Street Theatre is a favorite amongst many Philadelphians. For music, all the biggest rock bands and stars have Philadelphia on their tour lists. For example, U2 was just in Philadelphia!
