Things To Do In Philadelphia In Just One Day | In A Day Series
Рет қаралды 52,104
Things to do in Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love, in one day for the In A Day Series. After riding in on the Amtrak, I take a walking tour of Philadelphia, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Famous Rocky Steps and statue, Sister Cities Park, Love Park, Independence National Historical Park, and Penn's Landing. I end the day at the Eastern State Penitentiary.
About the In A Day Series:
As an avid traveler, there are a lot of places I want to explore but just don’t have the time to see them all. That’s why I’m embarking on a new adventure: to visit as many places as I can, in as little time as I can. Welcome to my In A Day series, where I take a very quick trip to show you the highlights of some of the coolest places all across the country in, well, just a day.

Check out spelling and pronunciation of Rodin as well. BTW, most of his work was in bronze, so many casts of each were made. (There are ~28 casts of The Thinker around the world.)

Hey Zach!! I from Philly born and raised, although I did live in Charlotte for a few years😊 Anywhoo I normally watch your cruise videos, but this popped up on my recommended. I did not know that that stautue was called the Washington monument. I'm 55 and when I was in elementary school we took several trips to old city/independence hall and a copy the declaration of independence was in Philly back then. I never knew it was moved. Looks like you enjoyed yourself 😊

I'm glad I found this video! I visited Philly awhile back and it was nice to see some of the areas I never got to. I went to visit friends and they took us around. Sadly, I didn't get to see the prison. I know you edited out the times when you took breaks and got food, but in future "In a Day" videos, I'd love to see your top choices for a quick meal and a short rest stop! These are great for people interested in the top sites to see in any given place. Thanks for the shot of the Liberty Bell! That brings back memories. Dang I wish you'd gotten a Philly Steak Sandwich!

You’re correct in your pronunciation. The market’s, and terminal’s, name are from the town in Pennsylvania also called Reading.

You're correct. It's named after Reading PA, which is named after Reading England.

My compliments on an excellent job getting through the city and seeing a lot of what there is to offer in Philadelphia.. I offer this praise, as someone who's been a tour guide in the city for over a dozen years. Hit me up before you come back in town and I'll be glad to show you a few of the things you missed. I have to ask if you would allow me to use some of the beautiful 4K footage you've shared here on my own channel. It is Philadelphia centric channel and still very small so I wouldn't be a competition for your audience and it would be my pleasure to thank and credit you in the description of any and every video, in which I sample your work. Yea or nay, you did a great job, you deserve to be proud, and thank you for showcasing my beloved hometown so expertly. 😁

I wish if you can teach people how to travel and live cheaply, because for many, travel is very expensive and it doesnt have to be. Also take in mind safety, which should not be compromised. Details on cost of accomodation, car/vehicle cost, food and plane/train tickets would be greatly appreciated, and any advice on how to lower these costs to become quite affordavle without compromising on quality.

There's a lot of "in between" neighborhoods you wouldn't want to walk through if you're White. Some nice areas but they are generally surrounded by some not so very nice which are far larger and dangerous. I am from Philly area but not deluded as to its ups and downs. In the late 80's I had objects thrown at my vehicle as well as a myriad of racial slurs hurled my way on Stenton Ave for being White. Also, there are NO Norsemen in Norristown and absolutely NO Germans in Germantown. They are also places you'll probably want to avoid, as my brother was shot at in Germantown for his ethnicity.
