Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is the sixth largest city in the United States and is rich in history, culture, and chef-driven cuisine.

You’re also just a short car or subway ride away from historic Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell Center, the Betsy Ross House, and other historical sites, as well as the world class Philadelphia Museum of Art, the interesting and quirky Mütter Museum, and the African American Museum in Philadelphia, which was the first institution built by a major US city to house and interpret the life and work of African Americans.
