America’s Garden Capital
Did you know Philadelphia IS America’s Garden Capital? With more than 30+ public gardens, arboreta, and historic landscapes all located within 30 miles, the Greater Philadelphia region has more gardens in close proximity than anywhere else on the continent
See all of the gardens that make this distinction possible at www.americasgardencapital.org.
Historic Germantown
Historic Germantown is a partnership of 18 extraordinary Philadelphia houses, destinations, and museums.
In Historic Germantown you can experience the very roots of American liberty as you learn the stories of those who fought for it and dared to dream of freedom for all people.
Located just minutes from Center City, Historic Germantown is where Philadelphia’s only Revolutionary War Battle was fought. It is where the first-ever American protest against slavery was written. And it is where one of the few remaining houses on the Underground Railroad still stands. You definitely don’t want to miss the full experience.
