href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/co-videt-v-new-yorku\/\">New York<\/a> to see a cracked bell, which is a real shame. <strong>Philadelphia, nicknamed Philly,<\/strong> was founded by the Quaker William Penn, and its Independence Hall is where the Declaration of Independence was adopted on July 4, 1776.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Besides the bell, which cracked soon after arriving from London, you&#8217;ll find the <strong>72 stone steps from the film Rocky<\/strong> and a bronze statue of the famous boxer. <strong>You can explore the birthplace of the United States on foot<\/strong>: its compact center connects historic Old City, the market beneath the Reading Railroad train shed, and the museum-lined Benjamin Franklin Parkway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

But the city still has several new attractions and updates that older guides don&#8217;t cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li><strong>Independence Hall tickets:<\/strong> Entry is free without a reservation from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m. For time slots from 10:40 a.m. onward, you need a ticket from Recreation.gov, which costs US$1.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>How many days you need:<\/strong> Allow two to three days for the main sights, museums, and markets, or four if you&#8217;re planning a trip outside the city.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>When to visit:<\/strong> The most pleasant weather is from May to June and September to October, when average daily highs range from roughly 20 to 28 \u00b0C.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Airport transfers and public transport:<\/strong> The SEPTA Airport Line train takes you downtown for US$8.75 when you pay by card, while a single public transport ride costs US$2.90.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rocky statue:<\/strong> According to Visit Philly, the Rocky statue has been moved to its permanent location at the top of the 72 steps (it previously stood at the bottom) and will be ceremonially unveiled there again on November 13, 2026. Since October 2025, the art museum has been called Philadelphia Art Museum, rather than Philadelphia Museum of Art.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rocky Season:<\/strong> The celebration marking the film Rocky&#8217;s 50th anniversary runs until December 3, 2026.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>First Bank of the United States:<\/strong> The historic building reopened after renovation on July 1, 2026, and admission is free.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Safety:<\/strong> Avoid Kensington, especially the intersection of Kensington and Allegheny, where there is an open-air drug market. At night, take an Uber instead.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Food for vegetarians:<\/strong> The city has a thriving vegan scene, from Vedge (listed in the Michelin Guide&#8217;s Michelin Selected category in 2025) to the vegan cheesesteak at HipCityVeg\u2014a plant-based version of the local sliced-beef-and-cheese sandwich\u2014and LUHV Vegan Deli at Reading Terminal Market.<\/li>\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Philadelphia_USA_Weather_Best_Time_to_Visit_and_Travel_Tips\"><\/span>Philadelphia USA Weather, Best Time to Visit, and Travel Tips<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The best weather and time to visit<\/strong> are from May to June and September to October, when average daily highs range from roughly 20 to 28 \u00b0C. July and August are hot and humid, with average highs around 30 to 31 \u00b0C; the all-time August record is 41.1 \u00b0C. In January and February, average highs reach 5.2 and 6.8 \u00b0C, snow falls, and the February record low is \u221223.9 \u00b0C. Annual rainfall is around 1,120 millimeters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The events calendar<\/strong> features several highlights throughout the year:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li><strong>Rocky Season, until December 3, 2026:<\/strong> Key dates are November 7, 13, and 14, and December 3 (see tip 9 for details).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>November 26, 2026:<\/strong> The Thanksgiving Day Parade traditionally makes its way through the city; check the exact schedule.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>January 1:<\/strong> Mummers Parade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Late March and April:<\/strong> Cherry Blossom Festival.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Late June to July 4:<\/strong> Independence Day celebrations, known as Wawa Welcome America.<\/li>\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Flights from abroad:<\/strong> American Airlines operated seasonal daily nonstop service from Europe between May 21 and October 5 in summer 2026. Check aa.com to see whether your route will operate in 2027. Outside the season, you may need to connect at a European hub, or you can fly into <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/co-videt-v-new-yorku\/\">New York<\/a> and continue by train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Getting from PHL Airport to downtown<\/strong> is straightforward on the <strong>SEPTA Airport Line<\/strong> commuter train, with stations right at the terminals near baggage claim. A ride to the Center City stations (Jefferson, Suburban, and 30th Street) costs <strong>US$8.75<\/strong> when you pay with a contactless bank card, phone, or SEPTA Key card (the local transport operator&#8217;s travel card), or US$11 if you pay on board. The journey to Center City takes approximately 25 minutes, and trains run roughly every half hour; check SEPTA for the timetable. Tap your card both when boarding (tap on) and when leaving (tap off), otherwise you&#8217;ll be charged the highest fare. Taxis from the airport to Center City charge a flat rate of <strong>US$32<\/strong>, plus US$1 for each additional passenger over 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SEPTA public transport<\/strong> costs <strong>US$2.90<\/strong> per ride when you pay with a contactless bank card or SEPTA Key card, including two free transfers within two hours using the same card. Children under 12 travel free with a paying adult. With a SEPTA Key card (the card costs US$4.95, refundable after registration), you can buy a <strong>US$7.50<\/strong> One Day Convenience Pass or a <strong>US$19<\/strong> Three Day Convenience Pass. The operator is switching to letter-based line names, including the elevated L line (Market-Frankford Line) and the B line (Broad Street Line). According to local media, operating funding is secured until June 2027; check timetables before traveling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Walking and regional train travel<\/strong> are made easy by the compact city center: you can walk from Old City to Rittenhouse Square in roughly 30 minutes. From <strong>30th Street Station<\/strong>, Amtrak Northeast Regional trains run to New York, <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/co-videt-ve-washingtonu\/\">Washington<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/co-videt-v-bostonu\/\">Boston<\/a>, while Keystone Service trains serve Lancaster and Harrisburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>US entry requirements and insurance:<\/strong> Travelers eligible for the Visa Waiver Program need a biometric passport and electronic <strong>ESTA<\/strong> authorization, which costs around <strong>US$40<\/strong>. It is valid for two years for visits of up to 90 days; apply at least 72 hours in advance, using only the official website (you&#8217;ll find detailed instructions in our <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/esta-vstup-usa\/\">ESTA for the USA<\/a> article). Requirements depend on your nationality, so check whether you need ESTA or a visa. Healthcare in the US is expensive, so take out travel insurance with a high coverage limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Money and taxes:<\/strong> Cards are accepted almost everywhere. Prices in shops and on menus exclude tax (<strong>8% sales tax<\/strong>), and hotel tax is 15.5 to 16.25%.

Neither the FCDO nor the Czech Ministry of Foreign Affairs singles out Philadelphia; the latter&#8217;s US advice highlights seasonal risks from hurricanes, storms, and wildfires in the West and Hawaii. Most of the places in this article are in Old City, Center City, Rittenhouse Square, and around the Parkway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Pew, the number of homicides in Philadelphia fell to 222 in 2025, the lowest figure since 1966 and 17% lower than in 2024. Local media report that the decline has continued this year: by October 2026, 138 homicides had been recorded, a decrease of 23%. Even so, you can&#8217;t describe a large city as safe without reservations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Avoid <strong>Kensington<\/strong>, especially the intersection of <strong>Kensington and Allegheny<\/strong> and the Somerset and Allegheny stations on the L line. There is an open-air drug market around Kensington Avenue beneath the elevated railway, so don&#8217;t go there even out of curiosity. Fishtown, with its bars and restaurants, lies farther south and is fine to visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the evening, more people experiencing homelessness may gather around subway stations in Center City and along the L line, so take an Uber at night instead. Expect security screening at Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell Center, where weapons and open drinks are prohibited. The US emergency number is <strong>911<\/strong>. For consular emergencies, use your own country&#8217;s foreign ministry or embassy emergency contact. Check your embassy&#8217;s location and contact details before you travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_Stay_in_Philadelphia\"><\/span>Where to Stay in Philadelphia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a first visit, <strong>Old City and Society Hill<\/strong> are the most convenient neighborhoods.

Kensington borders them to the north (see the Safety section), so avoid choosing accommodation just because it is \u201ccheap in Kensington.\u201d For onward travel, <strong>University City<\/strong> is convenient near 30th Street Station, on the other side of the Schuylkill River. It works well for trains to New York or Washington and for visiting the Penn Museum. Airport hotels make sense only for your first or last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to a hotel search engine (as of October 22, 2026), the indicative median price for a double room in Center City and Old City on the weekday of November 18, 2026 was about <strong>\u20ac125 per night<\/strong> (ranging from \u20ac70 to \u20ac280). For Wednesday, June 9, 2027, it was <strong>\u20ac235<\/strong> (some offers exceeded \u20ac570), and for Wednesday, February 10, 2027, <strong>\u20ac90<\/strong> (ranging from \u20ac60 to \u20ac200). Before booking, check whether the total price includes the hotel tax of <strong>15.5%<\/strong>, or <strong>16.25%<\/strong> for hotels with 50 or more rooms (a planned tax increase in 2026 did not go ahead).

Philadelphia served as the capital of the United States at various times between 1776 and 1800.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From 9:00 to 10:30 a.m., Independence Hall offers walk-in entry without tickets. From 10:40 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (until 4:40 p.m. from November 1, 2026), guided tours run every 20 minutes. Admission is free, but <strong>reservations on Recreation.gov cost USD 1 (\u20ac1) per person<\/strong>, and the fee is non-refundable. You can book up to 10 tickets per account, starting 30 days in advance; additional tickets are released at 5:00 p.m. the day before. Arrive 30 minutes before your tour, as security screening at the entrance on 5th Street (between Chestnut and Walnut) closes 15 minutes before the site shuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congress Hall follows the same morning walk-in schedule, from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m., followed by tours every 20 minutes until 4:40 p.m. A major recent addition is the <strong>First Bank of the United States<\/strong>, which reopened after renovation on July 1, 2026. Admission is free Thursday through Monday, from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Park rangers give talks at noon, 1:00, 2:00 and 3:00 p.m., and reports say a temporary exhibition about the city&#8217;s anniversaries will be on view until February 15, 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1 Tip: A free ranger-led walking tour leaves from the window at the Liberty Bell Center (see tip 2) every day at 10:00 a.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6aed63e8f0307&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6aed63e8f0307\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"2048\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-liberty-bell.jpg\" alt=\"The cracked Liberty Bell inside the Liberty Bell Center\" class=\"wp-image-455698\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-liberty-bell.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-liberty-bell-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-liberty-bell-700x933.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-liberty-bell-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-liberty-bell-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-liberty-bell-696x928.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-liberty-bell-1392x1856.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: jeff Dougan \/ Google Maps<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Liberty_Bell_Center\"><\/span>2.

Abolitionists gave it the name Liberty Bell in the 1830s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The large crack visible today appeared in the first half of the 19th century. The story that the bell split in 1835 at the funeral of Chief Justice Marshall is a legend. Inside, you can read information in around a dozen languages. <strong>There are no restrooms in the pavilion<\/strong>; the nearest are at the Independence Visitor Center, 599 Market Street (open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1 Tip: They say you can also see the bell through the glass from 6th Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6aed63e8f0af3&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6aed63e8f0af3\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution.jpg\" alt=\"Entrance to the Museum of the American Revolution with cannons\" class=\"wp-image-455699\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-museum-of-the-american-revolution-1392x1044.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Ric Morgan \/ Google Maps<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Museum_of_the_American_Revolution\"><\/span>3.

Including the statue of city founder William Penn, it stands 548 feet (167 meters) tall. According to Wikipedia, it was the <strong>world&#8217;s tallest habitable building<\/strong> from 1894 to 1908 and is the world&#8217;s largest free-standing masonry building. It has around 700 rooms, and its clock faces are said to be larger than those of Big Ben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The City Hall tower is the <strong>main viewpoint in the city center<\/strong>. On the Tower Tour, a small-capacity elevator takes you to the observation deck below William Penn&#8217;s statue. The viewpoint is not wheelchair accessible, operates subject to weather, and is generally open on weekdays from around 10:00 to 14:45. Buy tickets in advance at tickets.phlvisitorcenter.com (check the site for prices). You can also get information at the City Hall Visitor Center (1400 JFK Blvd, Room 121, Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 16:00).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dilworth Park<\/strong> sits beside City Hall, with a fountain in summer and an ice rink in winter. Right next door, <strong>LOVE Park<\/strong> (JFK Plaza) is home to Robert Indiana&#8217;s LOVE sculpture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1 Tip: In addition to the tower visit, you can take an Interior Tour of City Hall, which runs every hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6aed63e8f3430&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6aed63e8f3430\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody.jpg\" alt=\"Steps leading to the Philadelphia Art Museum, made famous by Rocky\" class=\"wp-image-455723\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/co-videt-ve-philadelphii-rockyho-schody-1392x1044.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Jenn Jarkow \/ Google Maps<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Philadelphia_Art_Museum_and_the_Rocky_Steps\"><\/span>9.

Adult admission is <strong>$30<\/strong>, and visitors under 18 enter free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Seventy-two stone steps<\/strong> lead to the east entrance, made famous by the 1976 film <em>Rocky<\/em> (which won the Academy Award for Best Picture and tells the story of a boxer from the Kensington neighborhood, discussed in the Safety section). At the top, you\u2019ll find Rocky\u2019s footprints and views over Eakins Oval, the Parkway, and City Hall. According to Visit Philly, the <strong>Rocky statue<\/strong> has been moved to its permanent spot at the top of the 72 steps (it previously stood at the bottom), where it will be officially unveiled again on November 13, 2026. The steps and statue are free to visit 24 hours a day.

Wissahickon Valley Park and Fairmount Park (+ Shofuso)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a break in nature, head to <strong>Wissahickon Valley Park<\/strong>, which is described as part of Fairmount Park and is open daily from 6:00 to 18:00. More than <strong>50 miles (80 km) of trails<\/strong> wind along the creek and around the Valley Green area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fairmount Park is also home to <strong>Shofuso Japanese House and Garden<\/strong>, a traditional Japanese house built in Japan in 1953. The site is open seasonally; on Sundays, it opens from 11:00 to 17:00 and is closed on Mondays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re visiting with children aged 3 to 12, you can take them to the <strong>Please Touch Museum<\/strong> in the park. The park is also home to the <strong>Philadelphia Zoo<\/strong>, which houses around 1,700 animals and is open daily from 9:30 to 17:00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_Trips_from_Philadelphia\"><\/span>Day Trips from Philadelphia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s easy to plan day trips from the city. History buffs can visit <strong>Valley Forge National Historical Park<\/strong>, where Washington&#8217;s army camped during the winter of 1777\u20131778. The park covers 3,500 acres (about 14 km\u00b2) and has 35 miles (56 km) of trails. Around 2 million people visit each year, and <strong>admission is free year-round<\/strong>. The drive takes about 35 to 40 minutes, while getting there by public transport is complicated. The park offers 90-minute trolley tours (reservations required) and seasonal bike rentals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Longwood Gardens<\/strong>, near Kennett Square, is about an hour&#8217;s drive away. You&#8217;ll find gardens, greenhouses, and fountain shows, as well as Christmas decorations in winter. The gardens are closed on Tuesdays, and tickets are usually sold for a specific time slot; check their website for current conditions and prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another option is <strong>Amish Country in Lancaster County<\/strong>, home to Amish communities (also known as Pennsylvania Dutch, from the German word <em>Deitsch<\/em>; they are not Dutch). The Amtrak Keystone train leaves 30th Street Station 13 times a day and takes about an hour to reach Lancaster. From there, you&#8217;ll need a car or an organized tour; driving from Philadelphia takes about 1.5 hours. You can visit <strong>Amish Farm and House<\/strong> or ride the <strong>Strasburg Rail Road<\/strong> steam train through Amish farmland. Keep in mind that <strong>much of Amish Country is closed on Sundays<\/strong>, including Kitchen Kettle Village in Intercourse, and avoid taking close-up photos of Amish people facing the camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From <strong>30th Street Station<\/strong>, Amtrak trains take about 1 to 1.5 hours to reach New York (see our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/co-videt-v-new-yorku\/\">Things to See in New York<\/a>) and around 2 hours to reach Washington in the opposite direction (see <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/co-videt-ve-washingtonu\/\">Things to See in Washington<\/a>). The Northeast Regional continues north to Boston, where the Freedom Trail takes you through sites connected to the American Revolution; learn more in our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/co-videt-v-bostonu\/\">Things to See in Boston<\/a>. You can reach <strong>Atlantic City<\/strong>, with its casinos, boardwalk, and beaches in summer, on the <strong>NJ Transit Atlantic City Line<\/strong> in about 1.5 hours. Trains run 12 times a day in each direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- LKM_GYG_CARD start q=\"philadelphia\" lang=\"en\" --><!-- LKM_GYG_CARD end -->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1792659127000\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_many_days_should_you_spend_in_Philadelphia\"><\/span>How many days should you spend in Philadelphia?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p><strong>2 to 3 days<\/strong> is enough to explore the city center.

Allow an extra day for a trip to Valley Forge or Amish Country.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1792659127001\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_you_need_tickets_for_Independence_Hall\"><\/span>Do you need tickets for Independence Hall?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>There is an <strong>\u201copen house\u201d from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m.<\/strong>, when you can enter freely without a ticket.

The steps and statue are free to visit 24 hours a day.

According to Pew, the number of homicides fell to 222 in 2025, the lowest figure since 1966, and local media report that the decline is continuing in 2026. Still, a large city cannot be described as safe without some caveats: more people experiencing homelessness may gather around subway stations in Center City in the evening. At night, take an Uber instead, and avoid <strong>Kensington<\/strong> around the intersection of Kensington and Allegheny (see the Safety section for details).<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1792659127005\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_find_vegetarian_food_in_Philadelphia\"><\/span>Can you find vegetarian food in Philadelphia?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Philadelphia has a thriving vegan scene. <strong>Vedge<\/strong> is listed in the Michelin Guide as a Michelin Selected Restaurant for 2025.

Travelers with an eligible biometric passport can apply for electronic travel authorization through <strong>ESTA<\/strong>. It costs <strong>around US$40 (about \u20ac35)<\/strong> and is valid for two years or until your passport expires or you get a new one, whichever comes first. Apply at least 72 hours before departure, using only the official website. If you are not eligible, you will need to check the visa requirements for your nationality.
