I recommend visiting the Philadelphia Zoo because “The Philadelphia Zoo, located in the Centennial District of Philadelphia, on the west bank of the Schuylkill River, was the first true zoo in the United States. It was chartered by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on March 21, 1859, but its opening was delayed by the Civil War until July 1, 1874.” -Wikipedia

“Visitors who walk U-City’s busy sidewalks — it’s bordered by University Avenue to the south, Market Street to the north, 30th Street to the east and 38th Street on the west — uncover a fascinating palette of people and places, offering everything from a vibrant street-food scene and famous chef-run establishments to high-end art galleries and intimate late-night hangs.
An incredibly robust and diverse student population, which sprawls beyond U-City’s borders in all directions, contributes to the verve and energy of the everyday. However, it doesn’t take a backpack stuffed with textbooks to need a reason to tour this dynamic neighborhood.”

“Northern Liberties has shed the label “up-and-coming” and undoubtedly arrived. This former manufacturing district first started turning heads in the early ’90s when a progressive, artist-heavy flock migrated north from Old City, lured by the neighborhood’s inherent charm and affordable studio space.
The commingling of like-minded residents and entrepreneurs led to a quirky network of bars, restaurants and boutiques within neighborhood limits — Girard Avenue and Callowhill Street north and south, the Delaware River and 6th Street east and west.”
