Lonely Planet’s “Best U.S. City” for this year is the City of Brotherly Love—and it’s no wonder why.
This year the 2016 Democratic National Convention landed in Philly, not to mention endless music and art festivals, a delectable food scene, trendy hotels, and history around every picturesque corner. America’s first UNESCO World Heritage City, Philadelphia is a can’t-miss spot for your travel bucket list.
The best places in Philadelphia include both affordable and luxe hotels, high-end eateries, no-frills cheesesteak spots, world-class museums, sprawling green spaces, and expert-led food tours. Don’t miss the iconic Liberty Bell, a beer tour that will put you elbow-to-elbow with seasoned locals, hidden historic sites in Old City, and more. Here’s what to do in Philadelphia, in one graphic.
