00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:02.359
Hey, we made it to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It's a city

2
00:00:02.359 --> 00:00:05.040
that wears its history right on its sleeve. You step

3
00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:06.679
off the train or out of your car, and you're

4
00:00:06.719 --> 00:00:10.240
instantly surrounded by this rich tapestry of American history mixed

5
00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:13.000
with a vibrant modern city life. Right off the bat,

6
00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:15.960
let's dive into the heart of it all. Independence National

7
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:19.120
Historical Park. You've got to start here because, simply put,

8
00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:22.160
this is where America was born. You'll want to head

9
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.039
straight to Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence in

10
00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:28.480
the US Constitution were both debated and adopted. It's like

11
00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:31.120
stepping back in time. As you walk through the halls,

12
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:33.399
you can almost hear the echoes of those founding fathers

13
00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:35.320
hashing it all out. Make sure you grab a ticket

14
00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:37.799
in advance, because this place gets packed. Everyone wants a

15
00:00:37.799 --> 00:00:41.000
little slice of history. And just across the street, you

16
00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:43.079
can't miss the Liberty Bell. Even before you see it,

17
00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:45.840
you might hear it. It's that iconic. There's something incredibly

18
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:48.280
moving about seeing this symbol of freedom up close, complete

19
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:50.840
with its famous crack. The bell is displayed in a

20
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:53.159
beautiful pavilion, and there are some exhibits around that give

21
00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:57.079
you even more context about its history and significance. After

22
00:00:57.119 --> 00:00:59.719
you've soaked in some history, it's time to explore the streets.

23
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:03.240
Philadelphia is a city best enjoyed on foot. You'll want

24
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:05.599
to wander through the cobbled streets of old city. As

25
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:08.120
you stroll, you'll find a mix of colonial era buildings

26
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:11.079
and trendy boutiques, cafes, and art galleries. It's a place

27
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:14.200
where the past and present really do meet. If you're

28
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:17.000
a fan of quirky museums, the Betsy Ross House is

29
00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:19.920
a must see. It's small but packed with charm. You

30
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:21.959
can see where Betsy Ross is believed to have stitched

31
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:24.680
the first American flag. It really gives you a sense

32
00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:27.359
of her life and times. Plus, there's a small courtyard

33
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:30.640
that's a nice spot to take a breather siaturn. Now

34
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:32.719
let's talk food, because you're going to get hungry with

35
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:35.680
all this walking. Philadelphia is known for its cheese steaks,

36
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:37.359
and you've got to try one from Pat's King of

37
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:40.439
Steaks or Gino Steaks, both institutions in their own right.

38
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:42.920
They're located right across from each other on East pass

39
00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:45.760
Yank Avenue, and there's this friendly rivalry about who has

40
00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:48.319
the best cheese steak. Honestly, you can't go wrong with either.

41
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:51.400
Just remember to order wit or wit out, which is

42
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:55.400
Philly speak for with or without onions. While you're in

43
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:57.840
the neighborhood, check out the Italian Market. It's one of

44
00:01:57.840 --> 00:01:59.959
the oldest and largest open air markets in the cunt.

45
00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:02.799
You can find everything from fresh produce and meats to

46
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:05.719
artisanal cheeses and pastries. It's a sensory overload in the

47
00:02:05.719 --> 00:02:09.800
best way possible. Grab a canoli from Termany Brothers Bakery.

48
00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:13.000
You won't regret it. Speaking of sweets, you need to

49
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:15.400
try a pretzel from a street vendor. These aren't your

50
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:20.240
average mall pretzels. Philly soft pretzels are unique, denser, dohier,

51
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:22.879
and usually shaped like a figure eight, perfect for a

52
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:26.680
quick snack on the go as you continue your exploration. Next,

53
00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:29.159
it's off to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and yes,

54
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:31.719
you've got to run up those rocky steps, just like

55
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:34.280
Sylvester Stallone did in the movie. It's one of those

56
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:37.159
classic Philly experiences, and you'll often find people at the

57
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:39.840
top shadow boxing and taking selfies with the stunning view

58
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:42.919
of the city behind them. Inside the museum, holds an

59
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:45.919
impressive collection of art from around the world, from European

60
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:50.240
masterpieces to American art. There's something for everyone here. If

61
00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:53.080
you're an outdoor enthusiast, Fairmount Park is an excellent place

62
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:55.719
to spend a few hours. This massive park offers miles

63
00:02:55.719 --> 00:02:58.240
of trails for walking, jogging, or even biking if you're

64
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:00.360
feeling energetic. It's a great way to set soak up

65
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:02.039
some nature and see a different side of the city.

66
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:04.800
There are also some beautiful historic mansions within the park

67
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:06.639
that you can tour if you're into that sort of thing.

68
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:09.840
For a bit of an offbeat stop, make your way

69
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:12.759
over to the Eastern State Penitentiary. This isn't your average

70
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.240
tourist attraction. It's a former prison that was operational from

71
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.039
eighteen twenty nine to nineteen seventy one. Today it's a

72
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:21.280
fascinating and yes, slightly eerie museum. You can take a

73
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:23.800
self guided tour through the crumbling cell blocks and learn

74
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:26.080
about the history of the prison and its infamous inmates

75
00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:30.039
like al Capone. The audio tour is narrated by Steve Bouschemi,

76
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:33.599
which adds a cool touch to the experience. Let's not

77
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:36.319
forget about the vibrant neighborhoods that add so much character

78
00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:39.719
to Philadelphia. Head over to Fishtown, known for its hipster vibe,

79
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:43.400
street art, and eclectic mix of bars and restaurants. Grab

80
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:46.080
a coffee at La Colam, one of Philly's most famous roasters,

81
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:49.400
and explore the area. The Frankfurt Avenue Arts Corridor is

82
00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:51.240
a great spot to see some local art and maybe

83
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:54.840
pick up a unique souvenir. Then there's Rittenhouse Square, a

84
00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.319
beautiful park surrounded by some of the city's best dining

85
00:03:57.360 --> 00:03:59.319
and shopping. It's a great place to take a break

86
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:02.719
and just soak in the city's energy. There's usually something

87
00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:06.039
happening here, whether it's a farmer's market, art show, or

88
00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:09.199
just locals enjoying a day out. You've also got to

89
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:11.759
check out South Street, known for its vibrant atmosphere and

90
00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:14.840
eclectic mix of shops and eateries. This is where you'll

91
00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:18.000
find Jim's Steaks, another contender in the Great Philly cheese

92
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:21.399
steak debate. South Street is also home to the Philadelphia

93
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:25.920
Magic Gardens, an outdoor art installation made entirely from recycled materials.

94
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:29.199
It's whimsical, colorful, and unlike anything else you'll see in

95
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:32.319
the city, and if you're a sports fan, catching a

96
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:34.839
game is a must. Whether it's the Phillies, Eagles, seventy

97
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:38.319
six Ers or Flyers, Philly fans are passionate. Experiencing a

98
00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:41.800
game here is something special, with the crowd's energy being contagious.

99
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:44.639
Grab a soft pretzel and a beer and you're set

100
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:48.759
for a memorable experience. As the day winds down, make

101
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:51.439
your way to the waterfront at Penn's Landing. It's a

102
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:54.199
lovely area to take a relaxing walk along the Delaware River.

103
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.399
In the summer, there are often concerts and festivals, while

104
00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:00.480
in winter it transforms into a winter wonderland with an

105
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:03.160
ice skating rink. It's a great spot to unwind and

106
00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:06.959
reflect on the day's adventures. Now, let's not forget about

107
00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:10.399
the Reading Terminal Market. This indoor farmer's market is legendary,

108
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:13.040
with over eighty vendors selling everything from amish baked goods

109
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:16.079
to freshly shucked oysters. It's a food lover's paradise and

110
00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:18.399
whether you're looking for a sit down meal or something

111
00:05:18.439 --> 00:05:21.240
to take with you, there's no shortage of options. Head

112
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:23.680
to Denix for a roast pork sandwich, often touted as

113
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:26.759
the best sandwich in America. The combination of tender pork,

114
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:31.480
sharp provolon, and broccoli rabe is a flavor explosion. If

115
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.519
you're interested in a little more history, the National Constitution

116
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:37.800
Center is worth a visit. It offers a comprehensive look

117
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.879
at the Constitution, its history, and its ongoing impact on

118
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:45.680
American life. The interactive exhibits are engaging and informative, making

119
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:49.000
it a great stop for both kids and adults, and

120
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:51.839
for those who want a taste of Philly's diverse cultural scene.

121
00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:54.839
The Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts hosts everything from

122
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:58.279
Broadway shows to classical music concerts. Check out what's on

123
00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:01.920
while you're in town. You might catch some extraordinary To

124
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:06.120
round off your Philly adventure, consider a mural tour. Philadelphia

125
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:08.560
is known as the City of Murals, with over four

126
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:11.759
thousand pieces of public art. These murals tell the stories

127
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:14.519
of the city's communities and add a vibrant, colorful layer

128
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:16.879
to the urban landscape. You can take a guide to

129
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:20.319
tour or just wander around to see what catches your eye.

130
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:23.519
Philadelphia is a city that truly has something for everyone.

131
00:06:23.720 --> 00:06:25.639
Whether you're here for the history, the food, the art,

132
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:27.759
or simply to explore a new place. It's hard not

133
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:29.560
to fall in love with its unique blend of old

134
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:31.519
and new. You'll leave with a full belly, a head

135
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:33.360
full of stories, and maybe a little touch of that

136
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:37.199
Philly spirit. Hey, we made it to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It's

137
00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:39.279
a city that wears its history right on its sleeve.

138
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:41.079
You step off the train or out of your car,

139
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:43.959
and you're instantly surrounded by this rich tapestry of American

140
00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:47.399
history mixed with a vibrant modern city life. Right off

141
00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:49.160
the bat, let's dive into the heart of it all.

142
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:52.720
Independence National Historical Park. You've got to start here because,

143
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:56.040
simply put, this is where America was born. You'll want

144
00:06:56.040 --> 00:06:58.439
to head straight to Independence Hall, where the Declaration of

145
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:01.240
Independence in the US Constitution are both debated and adopted.

146
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:04.240
It's like stepping back in time. As you walk through

147
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:06.120
the halls, you can almost hear the echoes of those

148
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:09.040
founding fathers hashing it all out. Make sure you grab

149
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:11.560
a ticket in advance, because this place gets packed. Everyone

150
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:14.879
wants a little slice of history. And just across the street,

151
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:17.079
you can't miss the Liberty Bell. Even before you see it,

152
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:20.079
you might hear it. It's that iconic. There's something incredibly

153
00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:22.720
moving about seeing this symbol of freedom up close, complete

154
00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:25.800
with its famous crack. The bell is displayed in a

155
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:28.519
beautiful pavilion, and there are some exhibits around that give

156
00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:31.480
you even more context about its history and significance. Mocky.

157
00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:35.319
After you've soaked in some history, it's time to explore

158
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:38.959
the streets. Philadelphia is a city best enjoyed on foot.

159
00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:41.959
You'll want to wander through the cobbled streets of old city.

160
00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:44.920
As you stroll, you'll find a mix of colonial era

161
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:48.600
buildings and trendy boutiques, cafes, and art galleries. It's a

162
00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:51.240
place where the past and present really do meet. If

163
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:54.319
you're a fan of quirky museums, the Betsy Ross House

164
00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:57.000
is a must see. It's small, but packed with charm.

165
00:07:57.279 --> 00:07:59.000
You can see where Betsy Ross is believed to have

166
00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:01.160
stitched the first American flag. It really gives you a

167
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:03.600
sense of her life and times. Plus, there's a small

168
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:07.120
courtyard that's a nice spot to take a breather. Now,

169
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:09.079
let's talk food, because you're going to get hungry with

170
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:12.000
all this walking. Philadelphia is known for its cheese steaks,

171
00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:13.759
and you've got to try one from Pat's King of

172
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.439
Steaks or Gino Steaks, both institutions in their own right.

173
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:19.000
They're located right across from each other on East Pass

174
00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:21.439
Young Avenue, and there's this friendly rivalry about who has

175
00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:23.839
the best cheese steak. Honestly, you can't go wrong with either.

176
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:26.519
Just remember to order wit or wit out, which is

177
00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:30.399
Philly speak for with or without onions. While you're in

178
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:33.120
the neighborhood, check out the Italian Market. It's one of

179
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:35.320
the oldest and largest open air markets in the country.

180
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:37.399
You can find everything from fresh produce and meats to

181
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:40.440
artisanal cheeses and pastries. It's a sensory overload and the

182
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:44.320
best way possible. Grab a canoli from Termany Brother's Bakery.

183
00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:47.480
You won't regret it. Speaking of sweets, you need to

184
00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:49.639
try a pretzel from a street vendor. These aren't your

185
00:08:49.679 --> 00:08:52.639
average mall pretzels. Philly soft pretzels are unique, dens or

186
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:55.240
doughier and usually shaped like a figure eight, perfect for

187
00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:59.159
a quick snack on the go as you continue your exploration. Next,

188
00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:01.639
it's off to the Phillydelphia Museum of Art, and yes,

189
00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:03.559
you've got to run up those rocky steps, just like

190
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:06.279
Sylvester Stallone did in the movie. It's one of those

191
00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:09.000
classic Philly experiences, and you'll often find people at the

192
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:11.639
top shadow boxing and taking selfies with the stunning view

193
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:14.480
of the city behind them. Inside the museum holds an

194
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:17.639
impressive collection of art from around the world, from European

195
00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:22.399
masterpieces to American art. There's something for everyone here. If

196
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:25.799
you're an outdoor enthusiast, Fairmount Park is an excellent place

197
00:09:25.840 --> 00:09:28.440
to spend a few hours. This massive park offers miles

198
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:30.759
of trails for walking, jogging, or even biking if you're

199
00:09:30.799 --> 00:09:32.960
feeling energetic. It's a great way to soak up some

200
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:35.039
nature and see a different side of the city. There

201
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:37.679
are also some beautiful historic mansions within the park that

202
00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:39.639
you can tour if you're into that sort of thing.

203
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:42.320
For a bit of an offbeat stop, make your way

204
00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:44.960
over to the Eastern State Penitentiary. This isn't your average

205
00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:47.480
tourist attraction. It's a former prison that was operational from

206
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:50.919
eighteen twenty nine to nineteen seventy one. Today it's a

207
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:54.919
fascinating and yes, a slightly eerie museum. You can take

208
00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:57.840
a self guided tour through the crumbling cell blocks and

209
00:09:57.919 --> 00:09:59.960
learn about the history of the prison and it's infant

210
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:03.320
miss inmates like al Capone. The audio tour is narrated

211
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:06.399
by Steve Bouschami, which adds a cool touch to the experience.

212
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:10.399
Let's not forget about the vibrant neighborhoods that add so

213
00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:14.200
much character to Philadelphia. Head over to Fishtown, known for

214
00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:17.279
its hipster vibe, street art, and eclectic mix of bars

215
00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:20.519
and restaurants. Grab a coffee at Lacalam, one of Philly's

216
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:23.639
most famous roasters, and explore the area. The Frankfort Avenue

217
00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:25.639
Arts Corridor is a great spot to see some local

218
00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:28.799
art and maybe pick up a unique souvenir. Then there's

219
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.480
Rittenhouse Square, a beautiful park surrounded by some of the

220
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:34.200
city's best dining and shopping. It's a great place to

221
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:36.039
take a break, people watch and just soak in the

222
00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:38.720
city's energy. There's usually something happening here, whether it's a

223
00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:41.759
farmer's market, art show, or just locals enjoying a day out.

224
00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:44.600
You've also got to check out South Street, known for

225
00:10:44.639 --> 00:10:47.519
its vibrant atmosphere and eclectic mix of shops and eateries.

226
00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:50.200
This is where you'll find Jim's Steaks, another contender in

227
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:53.000
the Great Philly cheese steak Debate. South Street is also

228
00:10:53.080 --> 00:10:56.240
home to the Philadelphia Magic Gardens, an outdoor art installation

229
00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:00.759
made entirely from recycled materials. It's whimsical, colorful, and unlike

230
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:03.440
anything else you'll see in the city. And if you're

231
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:05.639
a sports fan, catching a game is a must. Whether

232
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.000
it's the Phillies, Eagles, seventy six Ers, or Flyers, Philly

233
00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:11.799
fans are passionate. Experiencing a game here is something special,

234
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:14.759
with the crowd's energy being contagious. Grab a soft pretzel

235
00:11:14.759 --> 00:11:17.080
and a beer and you're set for a memorable experience.

236
00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:20.200
As the day winds down, make your way to the

237
00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:22.960
waterfront at Pen's Landing. It's a lovely area to take

238
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:25.759
a relaxing walk along the Delaware River. In the summer,

239
00:11:25.759 --> 00:11:28.320
there are often concerts and festivals, while in winter it

240
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:31.200
transforms into a winter wonderland with an ice skating rink.

241
00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:33.799
It's a great spot to unwind and reflect on the

242
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:37.559
day's adventures. Now, let's not forget about the Reading Terminal Market.

243
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:41.600
This indoor farmer's market is legendary, with over eighty vendors

244
00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:44.840
selling everything from amish baked goods to freshly shucked oysters.

245
00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:47.279
It's a food lover's paradise, and whether you're looking for

246
00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:49.000
a sit down meal or something to take with you,

247
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:51.480
there's no shortage of options. Head to Dnnix for a

248
00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:54.559
roast pork sandwich, often touted as the best sandwich in America.

249
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:57.919
The combination of tender pork, sharp provolone, and broccoli rabe

250
00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:01.399
is a flavor explosion. If you're interested in a little

251
00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:04.200
more history, the National Constitution Center is worth a visit.

252
00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:07.480
It offers a comprehensive look at the Constitution, its history,

253
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:10.960
and its ongoing impact on American life. The interactive exhibits

254
00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:13.399
are engaging and informative, making it a great stop for

255
00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:16.600
both kids and adults, and for those who want a

256
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:21.840
taste of Philly's diverse cultural scene. The ki I'm Johnny
