As USA Today said in a recent article, this city has gone
"from Rocky to rockin''."
Building on its place as the historic center of America,
Philadelphia keeps adding attractions that make some call it New
York City''s "sixth borough"-top-notch art houses in the Barnes
Foundation and the Philadelphia Museum of Art: Independence
National Historic Park; the runner''s paradise of Fairmount Park and
its 8,900 acres; and some exceptional hotels, restaurants, and
pubs.
Frommer''s Philadelphia Day by Day will guide readers through
this revitalized Philadelphia, quickly and with an insider''s
knowledge of the one-of-a-kind experiences that lurk in the city''s
many vibrant neighborhoods. With hundreds of color photos, dozens
of annotated maps and walking tours, thematic tours for every taste
and star-rated advice on where to eat, stay, shop, and have fun,
this book is the perfect accompaniment to any visit to the
city.
