All I can say is if you are going to Philly, this site is a must visit. https://www.phillyexperiences.com. I bought the Ultimate Guide to Black Philadelphia and it was the best and cheapest investment $7. Every place I visited was Black Owned from my AirBnB (historical landmark @xolaoasis) to delicious restaurants to places to shop. Each experience was a beautifully curated adventure to remember. I attended a Black History walk tour found on AirBnB experience.
Philadelphia – the city of brotherly love and sisterly affection. Well upon first look, it’s pretty hard to find that love. Let’s face it, Philly is a tough city – the people, the sports, the language (lol someone’s going to call you a Dickhead at some point). Yet underneath this tough exterior lies a magnificent city, filled with beautiful landscapes, historical venues, and superb cuisine. Some of my favorites includes a power walk along Kelly Drive, the black history tour that highlights Richard Allen’s church- Mother Bethel, and a cheesesteak from Kobe Bryant’s favorite place Larry’s. I believe Philly has a lot of heart, and these are a few places that show the love and affection this city was nicknamed for.
I am originally from Philadelphia it’s a great location of great City to visit The Nightlife is awesome that is a club located downtown called The Library also is the club called uptown 57 it’s another great spot as well. The best night to go out and leave two spots on Friday night and Saturday night the atmosphere is great adult crowd 21 and over get in the music is R&B and Hip Hop yeah a little bit of house music too as well and this both of these spots are really upscale Club no t-shirts no jeans good to see you there.
Philadelphia is a great city to get great food, drinks, and a ton of history. The African American Museum of Philadelphia is an interactive museum with rotating exhibits highlight Black culture. There are often free events going on in the summer. Don’t forget to visit Mother Bethel AME Church which is not to far from the museum.
I enjoy traveling to Philly. Of course, the food is great! I enjoy tasting all the different cheesesteaks! That alone makes the trip! It always feels like home when I travel there no matter where I go. The nightlife is also plentiful and always exciting.
Took a roadtrip to Philly for 4th of July. My family and I went to a parade and a saw the liberty bell for free. There was a free concert in the park (Pitbull was there) and a fireworks show. Took an audio guide tour of the state penn ($14) and saw Al Capone’s cell. I enjoyed hearing the commentary. Waljed around the downtown area on a self guided graffiti tour. The China Town area had the worst smells. Bought rolled ice cream and a watermelon shake in China Town. Stopped for pics by the LOVE sign. My nieces enjoyed playing in the water fountains. I was able to get nice photos of them there. Went to Genos and Pats. Did not care for either. The good food is located in the reading terminal market. There are multiple shops and restsurants. I tried the cheesecake from Termini Brothers. It was okay. There is a really good soul food restaurant in there. The watermelon sweet tea, yams, cornbread, and chicken was delicious. Afterwards, we went to Hershey Park. It has a waterpark as well. Even though ourside was HOR, the water was COLD. I only went on one water slide, because the water was freezing. The next day, we went to the Hershey factory. We enjoyed making our own candy bar, learning about chocolate making, and the 3D show. I would go back to Hershey in low season. The next day, we went to the Amish Village. We learned about typical Amish life, toured a home, fed farm animals, and went on a tour of the community to observe the Amish. It was very informative and I had a good time.
