About this guide
As a huge fan of history, I began exploring the many museums and historical houses of Philadelphia a few years ago. As I visited new places, my discussions or wanderings led me to new sites. However, with my discoveries, I found that there was no comprehensive list of the historical attractions Philadelphia had to offer. And as someone who enjoys entertaining out-of-town guests, my knowledge of city's sites began to spark discussions of formulating a one-stop guide. It has since become my ambition to visit each of the sites in order to not only expand my own knowledge of the city and its rich and complex history, but to also best recommend these sites to future visitors. Those adventures have led me to create this guide, so that all can enjoy everything this city has to offer. Welcome to historical Philadelphia. - Jasmine Rivera
