P h i l a d e l p h i a - The City of Brotherly Love
Known as the home of the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall and the birthplace of Democracy. The place where Rocky made his famous run up the steps of the Art Museum. Here you will only find Tastykakes, hoagies,soft soft pretzels and the one of a kind cheesesteak (fattening but so good).
I find it to be a city with a pleasant mix of the historical and the modern. Its founder, William Penn, imagined a "greene countrie towne". It was intended to be a city of refuge for Europes persecuted masses. With time, Philadelphia soon flourished into a center of learning and culture.
A city of firsts. Now some Philly phacts: it had the first circulating library. The first mint. Americas's first hospital, and first fire company. "These achievements largely due to the efforts of "a printer from Boston", but certainly one of Philadelphia's true sons - Ben Franklin".
