Philadelphia Quick Tour
One Day Tour
The Philadelphia traveler must plan to wake up early in the morning if they want to try to fit in all the sights in a single day.
Independence Hall should be the first stop in the Center City. It is the birthplace of our nation, and architectural symbol of our freedom. It's best to get there early. The next stop should be
The Liberty Bell which is conveniently located adjacent to Independence Hall an housed in a beautiful pavilion that holds the cast iron bell that once rang out for the likes of William Penn, and John Marshal. After this, swing on up the street for the most fun, and entertaining attraction in Philadelphia,
Franklin's Court which offers a fun and rare look at the life and home of the American great, Benjamin Franklin. Cramming in three of Philadelphia's most popular attractions may be exhausting, so take a trip south and grab lunch at
Jim's Steaks, one of the favorite local restaurants that serve the classic Philadelphia cheesesteak, and the other home favorite Hoagie. Easy on the wallet, and pleasing on the stomach. After a big meal, heavy activity is not recommended, so you should check out the deluxe shopping at
The King of Prussia Court It offers top of the line clothing from such names as Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Bally Shoes. A quiet dinner in one of Philadelphia's exquisite Italian restaurants will bring a pleasant conclusion to your day. Perhaps dining at
Marra's in south Philly is your best bet, with moderately priced dinners of generously portioned homestyle Italian food. As good as it gets. If you're not tired after all this activity, maybe you could catch a show at the
Philadelphia Opera House, or dance the night away in one of the downtown's many flavorful nightclubs.
