Philadelphia, with its melding of history, culture, local cuisine, green spaces, passionate and vocal sports fans, performing arts venues, and ever-evolving skyline, is well worth your time visiting. Many people know about the city's most famous sites, like the Liberty Bell and the Art Museum. The city has much more to offer travelers, though.

Check out the Philadelphia Zoo, the oldest zoo in the country and home to nearly 1,300 animals. Spend some quiet time in Fairmount Park, the biggest municipal park in the city, at over 2,000 acres and featuring a number of historic houses and public art displays. The neighborhood of Chestnut Hill, in the city's far northwest, offers an almost suburban feel, with various parks and historic buildings as well as the Thomas Mill Covered Bridge, the only bridge of its kind in the city.

Philadelphia has its own unique cuisine. Try a soft pretzel, and add a little mustard, for a quintessential Philly snack. There are quite a number of cheesesteak shops in the city; head down to 9th and Passyunk to sample a steak from either Pat's or Geno's. These establishments are right across the street from each other and have been rivals for decades. For a cool, sweet treat on a hot day, try some flavored water ice from Rita's.

The Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts is home to the Philadelphia Orchestra, so you may want to attend a classical music concert while in town.
