An exceptional guide to the City of Brotherly Love, A Marmac Guide to Philadelphia presents a short history of the city from the original Indian tribes to present-day revitalization and development.
Historic homes, elaborate churches, distinctive museums, and old forts in and around the city are documented in detail. A listing of special events throughout the year such as the Mummers Parade on New Year's Day, the Ethnic Festival in April, and the reenactment of Washington crossing the Delaware in December will help you decide when to schedule your visit. One-day excursions include the Amish country, Fallsington, and Pennsbury Manor, where William Penn lived and worshiped.

Key maps of the city are provided for quick reference. This unique combination makes Marmac Guides ideal for tourists, new residents, and natives alike.
