Reseña del editor

Independence Hall, the Franklin Mint Museum, the children's Please Touch Museum, and the Edgar Allen Poe House are among the attractions awaiting visitors to Philadelphia. 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 December reenactment of Washington crossing the Delaware, will help you decide when to schedule your visit. One-day excursions suggested include the Amish Country, Fallsington, and Pennsbury Manor where William Penn lived and worshiped. The Marmac Guide series is noted for its easy-to-use, clear format. The Philadelphia guide highlights the essentials: transportation, lodging, restaurants, shopping, nightlife, sightseeing, and day and weekend adventures outside the city. Key maps of the city are provided at the beginning for quick reference. This informative guide is ideal for tourists, new residents, and natives alike.
