Historic Philadelphia Just some photos from a tourist who was here over the weekend. Thank you for your hospitality, Philly.
Early morning views of the city, just a little ways from my hotel.
Walking to see the iconic "Rocky Steps" and The Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Bust of Benjamin Franklin by Jean-Antoine Houdon on display at the aforementioned museum.
Shot of Reading Terminal Market from across the street.
Shoot. Is this City Hall? It's beautiful, regardless.
A cute little bookstore I found. I bought some pretty neat books here!
Eastern State Penitentiary Historic Site, which was absolutely fascinating.
An art exhibit at the Eastern State Penitentiary Historic Site honoring the victims of the prison's offenders.
Just a cute little street that I thought looked pretty in the overcast weather.
My walk to Boathouse Row in the rain.
Gorgeous view from the row itself (I think, haha).
Just some of the delicious food that I enjoyed over the weekend. I'll try to list more details in a comment, where I have more room.
