It's super crowded but you can't beat the view. Watch out for the 35 or so cars illegally parked in the bike lane right in front. It's a great representation of Philly. - David Howland

Fun exhibit in Fashion District by Ulta store! It’s two floors but not very big so you can get through in 1 hr or more (depending on how long you take photos). Teacher/student tix for $20. - Carol
