Indulge in mind-blowing food from over 80 vendors at Reading Terminal Market. The market offers a vast array of fresh and delicious food, including Philly cheesesteaks, local Amish sausage and fried chicken, and many more at reasonable prices.
Immerse in a whimsical world at the Philadelphia Magic Gardens, a stunning mosaic of visionary art created by Isaiah Zagar. Stroll around the maze-like installation, view the detailed murals, and take breathtaking photos. General admission is $10.
Relax and rejuvenate at the Franklin Square, one of the city's historic squares, which offers plenty of green space, a play area, a vintage carousel, and a mini-golf course. Admission is free, but the mini-golf course costs $10 for adults.
If you have more time, visit the Philadelphia Museum of Art (2.6 miles from Franklin Square), which is a dynamic cultural destination with over 240,000 works of art against an unforgettable view of the city skyline. If you have less time, skip the mini-golf at Franklin Square or visit fewer locations. Also, bring comfortable shoes since some attractions may require several hours of walking.
