Rittenhouse Square is the ideal place for an afternoon stroll. It’s a good-vibes park surrounded by boutiques, cafes, and some of the city’s best people-watching. If you have time over the weekend, grab a coffee and pastry at Parc, an iconic Parisian-inspired brasserie that feels like a mini escape to Europe. Ask any Philly person - Parc is the place to be.
If the weather is nice (crossing our fingers), take a walk (or rent a bike!) along the Schuylkill River Trail. The path winds alongside the river, offering stunning views of the city skyline and a close-up of the picture-perfect boathouse row. (Pronounced: Skoo-Kull)
The picturesque Philadelphia Museum of Art is right on the Schuylkill River. Take a moment to appreciate the collection and then run up the famous Rocky Steps. Fun fact - Zoe took her college graduation photos there in COVID times! Also, the view of the city from the top is stunning.
Philly is the birth place of our nation and home to historic sites like Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, the Constitution Center and the Betsy Ross house. When you've got your fix, walk over to the cobblestone streets of Old City for boutiques, art galleries and award-winning restaurants.
How could you not love Reading Terminal Market? It’s Philly’s classic food hall. When you visit you’ll see everything from Amish donuts to cheesesteaks to fresh flowers. Perfect place to grab a bite in between plans!
