The Rocky statute and steps are a classic Philly stop. While you're there, consider heading into the Philadelphia Museum of Art--one of the largest art museums in the country. Rising majestically at the end of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, the museum houses vast collections of Renaissance, American and impressionist art.

City Hall, the largest municipal building in the US, can (and should) be admired from the outside (which isn’t that hard to do, considering that William Penn and the building’s iconic clock can be seen from many spots throughout the city).


Reading Terminal Market is an iconic indoor farmers market offering diverse fare, housewares & area specialties since 1893.

McGillins Olde Ale House, the oldest continuously operating tavern in Philly and one of the oldest in the country, is nearby.

Chinatown is a bustling showcase of Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese and Korean cultures and cuisines. Beyond the gilt-painted Friendship Gate are streets packed with restaurants and bars, including the famous speakeasy-style Hop Sing Laundromat.

The Philadelphia Phillies host the Washington Nationals during our wedding weekend. There are several games surrounding the wedding at Citizens Bank Park in South Philly.

Pat's King of Steaks and Geno's Steaks are famous rival cheesesteak shops in Philadelphia. They're located diagonally across the street from each other at the intersection of 9th Street and Passyunk Avenue in South Philadelphia. While Gino's and Pat's are a fun stop, our favorite is Jim's on South Street.

Belgian-inspired beer bar featuring a classic pub atmosphere.

The highly walkable thoroughfare that gives East Passyunk its name is lined with indie boutiques, bars and cafes. It’s home to traditional red gravy Italian restaurants, world-famous cheesesteak spots (Pats & Genos), and highly acclaimed eateries.

A beautiful and historical hiking grounds.
