    Attractions in Philadelphia

    Philadelphia is a city for every type of person, from the history buffs to the art lovers, the foodies to the clubbers. Crisscrossed by the Delaware and Schuykill Rivers, this colonial haven was established by William Penn in the late 1600s. Now one of America’s most populous cities, Philadelphia has become known for its Americana attractions, like Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. We recommend trips to the Philadelphia Museum of Art for its size and variety, to the Mutter Museum for its eclectic collection, and to the Eastern State Penitentiary because it's in a state of "preserved ruin." Reading Terminal is a hub for all things food in the city, with shops and restaurants of every cuisine (and yes, they have cheesesteaks, although you might want to check out Geno’s for that).
