I Graduated from Temple University. Philadelphia Has Tourist Attractions!


Written by Stephanie Taylor, President and Style Editor-in-Chief, Intelligent Luxury.  Temple University graduate.


I love Philadelphia.  I graduated from Temple University.  I pray to travel to Philadelphia to see the Miami Marlins play versus the Philadelphia Phillies. Mister Derek Jeter retired NY Yankee baseball player and the Mister Michael Jordan retired Chicago Bulls basketball player could be there at the stadium - they are minority owners of the MLB team the Miami Marlins.  The majority owner of the Miami Marlins Major League Baseball team is Mister Bruce Sherman.  

Philadelphia has family-friendly tourist attractions are are opening.  This week Philadelphia acts as a place to go to visit   The Franklin Institute, Franklin Square, and One Liberty Observation Deck.


 Philly by Segway, Longwood Gardens, the Brandywine River Museum of Art, and Peddler’s Village. "At many of the attractions, visitor capacity is limited and advanced reservations are required, so people are encouraged to plan ahead in order to ensure entry," stated the website: visitphilly.com.

“We’re excited to see Philadelphia’s most popular sites and attractions reopening for locals and visitors to enjoy,” said Jeff Guaracino, president & CEO, VISIT PHILADELPHIA. “And we’re proud that all of these destination-defining places are putting the health and safety of their visitors and employees first. That’s a great comfort to people and helps them make informed decisions when they’re figuring out how and where to spend their time and money.”

Attractions Opening This Week:fill

  • Franklin Square, July 6: The reopening of the popular city park means that carousel rides, mini-golf, playgrounds and SquareBurger are open for business — or, more accurately, fun — again. It also marks the return of the colorful and musical Franklin Square Fountain Show. To keep people safe at the seven-and-a-half-acre park, staff will undergo daily health screenings, hand sanitizer will be stationed throughout the square and masks will be required for the carousel and mini-golf.
  • The Franklin Institute, July 8: Dedicated to celebrating science, The Franklin Institute reopens with several new protocols in place. The museum requires face coverings, no-touch temperature checks and advance tickets. In addition, the Ben Franklin Parkway mainstay is reducing visitor capacity and hours to allow for deep cleaning. With the reopening comes a brand new exhibit: The Presidents By Madame Tussauds, featuring life-like wax figures of every American president, as well as significant historical figures like Ben Franklin, Rosa Parks and Malcolm X. Running through January 3, 2021.
  • One Liberty Observation Deck, July 8: Stunning views of Philadelphia return with the reopening of the One Liberty Observation Deck. Operating Wednesday through Sunday, the sky-high attraction has all of the expected protocols in place: a mask requirement, hand-sanitizing stations, increased cleaning, limited guest capacity and employee health screenings.

  • Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens, July 10: When artist Isaiah Zagar’s masterpiece on South Street and one of the region’s most Instagrammable places reopens, people can once again snap a selfie in this mosaic wonderland constructed from bicycle spokes, bottles and other knick-knacks. Visitor capacity will be limited per time slot, so visitors must reserve tickets online in advance and wear a mask while on site.
