Start your adventure with a visit to the Independence Visitor Center on 6th and Market Streets. Here you can pick up your FREE timed tickets to Independence Hall and tickets for many other area attractions, meet Colonial characters, and browse the exhibits before making your way out onto the city streets.
For a look into a traditional colonial residence, visit the Betsy Ross House. Once home to the famous seamstress, this museum offers many free programs, a
fantastic audio tour, and chance to meet Betsy Ross herself! While there, you will get a feel for what Philadelphia was like for the Quakers.
Be sure to take a stroll down Elfreth’s Alley! This cobblestone street is the oldest continuously inhabited street in the country, and for one night, the residents
will open their doors to visitors for a glimpse into their historic homes. Philadelphia was founded on the idea of religious freedom, and there are many museums and historic sites dedicated to sharing the diversity of this city that call Philadelphia “home.” Stop by the National Museum of American Jewish History to complete you trip. Who says that just because it is cold outside you can’t enjoy some outdoor activities?
We hope you enjoy your visit to Philadelphia! |
