This Philadelphia walk starts on cobblestoned Elfreth's Alley in Old City, visits the Betsy Ross House, Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell, refuels at Reading Terminal Market, and finishes at Dilworth Park beside City Hall.

Elfreth's Alley
124-126 Elfreth's Alley, Philadelphia, PA 19106
Start on the oldest continuously inhabited residential street in America. This charming cobblestone lane has been home to artisans, factory workers, laborers and professionals for three centuries. The public road is open for a stroll any time of day and the museum is open seasonally from April through November.

Betsy Ross House
239 Arch St, Philadelphia, PA 19106
Stop by the home of the legendary seamstress who stitched the first American flag. The small courtyard and exhibits offer a quick but enriching look at this extraordinary 18th century woman.

Independence Hall
520 Chestnut St, Philadelphia, PA 19106
A few blocks away, visit the birthplace of the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. Here George Washington was appointed commander-in-chief, and outside its doors Benjamin Franklin famously described our new country as “a republic, if you can keep it.”

Liberty Bell
526 Market St, Philadelphia, PA 19106
Walk across Chestnut Street to find the famous Liberty Bell. Snap a photo with the iconic cracked bell and take in the historical significance of this powerful symbol of American independence. Before heading to the next stop, stop by the Independence Beer Garden for a signature drink.

Reading Terminal Market
1136 Arch St, Philadelphia, PA 19107
Refuel at this bustling indoor market. Grab a Philly cheesesteak, Pennsylvania Dutch pretzels, or a sweet treat from Beiler's Donuts.

Dilworth Park
1 S 15th St, Philadelphia, PA 19102
End your walk in Dilworth Park, known for its fountains in the summer that convert to an ice skating rink during the winter months and a roller rink in the spring. It's the perfect spot for people-watching and admiring the architectural grandeur of City Hall.

The Liberty Bell inside the Liberty Bell Center, with Independence Hall's clock tower framed in the glass wall behind it.
