PHILADELPHIA SIGHTSEEING

 The city of Philadelphia provides a wealth of things to see and do.  Its high importance during the Revolutionary War has yielded entire areas in which famous, country-shaping events have taken place.  Be sure to check out places like Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, Betsy Ross House, and Franklin Court during your walking tour of the district.  
Start at Front Street near the Delaware River and proceed up to around 6th Street and over past Chestnut and Market Streets.  Signs furnished by the city are everywhere, ensuring that you do not get lost and pointing out everything within a ten-minute walk.  

Your travels will definitely bring you to City Hall, located in Philadelphia's center.  The impressive, unobstructed view of William Penn on the structure's roof can be seen for miles around thanks to a law prohibiting buildings from blocking the Hall's famous cap.  
Further up, you'll find the museum district, home of Franklin Institute and the other "major" museums like the  Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Academy of Natural Sciences.
