Take a photo with one of the country’s founding fathers! No trip to Philadelphia is complete without seeing the Benjamin Franklin National Memorial, located in the Franklin Institute’s rotunda. This Pennsylvanian landmark and attraction honors Benjamin Franklin, Philadelphia’s most famous citizen, with a colossal 20-foot-tall statue made of white marble.
Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! You’re not in the Land of Oz, you’re entering the World of the Philadelphia Zoo. The first zoo in the United States, the Philadelphia Zoo remains one of the premier zoos in the world especially for endangered animals. See everything from big cats and primates to exotic birds and reptiles throughout the exhibits and attractions here.
You may have to join an emailing list to get up-to-date information about Secret Cinema—it’s one of the most secretive underground film events in the state! Despite being open to the public, Secret Cinema faces limited (and sometimes changing) venues. See some of the most unique movies, all shown in 16MM film on a giant screen (not video…not ever!).
Spend time exploring Wissahickon Valley Park’s more than 50 miles of trails that crisscross throughout the Delaware Valley.
