Set aside some time to visit the oldest surviving botanical garden in the United States. Bartram’s Garden covers 46 acres in Fairmount Park, and is open to the public for free admission. Try taking a tour inside the historic garden area (the original 8-acre garden begun in 1728), the historic stone house, through the elaborate grove and the largest variety of North American plants in the world.
Philadelphia’s premier tour company offers a variety of ways to see the city. Philadelphia Trolley Works & 76 Carriage Company has several packages to choose from. Once you have decided on your mode of transport—trolley, double-decker bus, carriage or foot—and your location—Olde City, Market Street, the Eastern State Penitentiary and more—you are ready to begin.
Visit the 9th Street Italian Market for some of the freshest produce and most unique shops in the region. Although known for its Italian heritage, the Bella Vista neighborhood which hosts the market is one of the most ethnically diverse Philly neighborhoods. You can find everything from farmers' markets to restaurants, bakeries and cafés selling specialty foods from all over the world.
