BEFORE YOU SET OUT

A few local details worth planning around.

Pick your part of Philadelphia

Center City, Old City and the Museum of Art are distinct settings. Choose civic architecture, historic streets or an indoor collection, then use that hunt’s suggested start to plan the day.

Check historic-site entry separately

Independence Hall has ticket arrangements that vary by visit period. The Liberty Bell Center does not require tickets but does have entry screening. Check the National Park Service’s current guidance if you plan to visit these sites alongside your hunt.
