Things to do

Philadelphia has a wealth of political, economic, social and cultural achievements, making it the history lovers dream. Independence Mall, the historic square mile, incorporates an important part of American history with the Liberty Bell based in the tower of Pennsylvania State House along with the National Liberty Museum and Independence Hall. Benjamin Franklin Parkway is a cultural strip of museums, libraries, fountains and parks, with the Franklin Museum an interesting step back in time. The Ritz-Carlton is based on the cultural Avenue of the Arts, the premier entertainment and arts district with a fine collection of theatres, shops and restaurants. Nearby there are three top golf courses to try out for golfers of all abilities. Scotland Run is one of the most exciting, upscale courses in the community, and the Ashbourne Country Club established in 1922 is located at the acclaimed suburban Philadelphia Country Club. The PHLASH bus provides transportation to all historic and cultural places of interest.
