How to Mix Education and Celebration for the Fourth

Plan a day trip with the family to historic Philadelphia.

If sitting for hours in bumper to bumper traffic just to get to an overcrowded beach is not how you want to spend this Fourth of July, then take a short drive to historic Philadelphia, and celebrate our nation's birthday with some fun, educational and inexpensive experiences the whole family can enjoy. Here are a few historic sites and fun activities to check out this July 4 weekend in Philly. Visit www.independencevisitorcenter.com for more information about these historic sites and others located in nearby Philadelphia.
