"Vibes of Philadelphia" Philadelphia by chess_machine

Philadelphia Travel Guide: 2,083 reviews and 4,048 photos

Before going there, I had few ideas about Philadelphia. Just Rocky Balboa reaching the top of the museum after a wild run and some beef kicking in a slaughterhouse. And I had watched Philadelphia and heard Bruice Springsteen's song, as everybody.

So, few images and not a real vision of the city.

Went there one weekend when I was living in NYC. One weekend is a good time to discover the city.

Funny thing is when you go around Philadelphia and learn more about the city, you realize how big this city is for US history... and how little you knew about it.
