What to do in Philly this weekend?

[Manzelle]

So I am going to see Nine Inch Nails in Philly on Saturday and I will be staying there all of Sunday as well. What is there to do in Philadelphia on a Sunday? There are four of us going and we all at least 24...

 

[Deeko]

uhh its a big city, what do you like?

 

[Manzelle]

What should I see while I am there? I have never been there before and aside from the Rocky statue and the Liberty Bell I have no idea what else is there.

South street.

Go see the Bodyworlds exhibit at Franklin Institute?

You MUST go to Gino's to get yourself a cheese steak.

Depending on what kind of guy you are, it's just a gorgeous city overall, having been there 2-3 times in the last few years. I absolutely loved the trolley tours, the buildings have so much historic value to them and are simple gorgeous. Otherwise, you can walk around and just see things by foot...cheesesteak, definitely...during the day, that's all I did, I guess. Sightseeing and eating

South street is stupid IMHO.

I did, however, like the spirit of philadelphia cruise...

I also think that I95 around south street is a lot of fun in the middle of the night on weekends... It wont matter how fast you're going- someone will pass you doing 30 above whatever you're doing....

Only if you are a knuckle dragging cretin with no social graces and bad taste. Go across the street to Pat's and get a REAL cheesesteak!

Ditch those tourist traps and go to John's Roast Pork instead.

Philadelphia is a great city for dining out. There are plenty of great restaurants in every price range in most any cuisine. I haven't lived their in a long time so my knowledge is not current so I won't make specific recommendations.

Some great museums:
Franklin Institute
Phila. Art Museum
Independence Hall
Museum of the University of Pennsylvania (Great Archeology & Anthropology Exhibits)

South Street is interesting at night.
