Things to do in Philadelphia
Fishtown Philadelphia
Fishtown Philadelphia is one of the city’s biggest hotspots for arts, music, bars and cuisine. Every first Friday of the month, the galleries and studios along Frankfort Avenue open to the public, and bistros, beer gardens and gastropubs flood the area. Home to some of the best entertainment the city of Philadelphia has to offer, Fishtown houses The Fillmore Philadelphia, which is a large, industrial-style bar that stages performing artists.
Center City Philadelphia
Named after its geographical location, Center City is truly the heart of Philadelphia. From historical landmarks like the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was signed, to lively dining scenes like Rittenhouse Square and Reading Terminal Market, Center City has it all. The area is also home to the Philadelphia Magic Gardens, The Fashion District and even the Christmas Village in December. If you drive about 10 minutes west, you’ll also enjoy the opportunity to go to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and climb the famous “Rocky Steps.”
