The brief history of Philidelphia

We’re hanging out with our founding fathers on this episode of Travel Thru History as we visit the very place where revolutionaries, decried “Liberty will reign in America!” Today Philadelphia is a booming city that is as alive with new ideas today, as it was in 1776. We start our journey in Philly on foot with one of its best guides. Then we’ll get thrown in the slammer as we get locked up inside the Eastern State Penitentiary. This prison is creepy enough to make anyone penitent. We’ll get our inner "Eye of the Tiger" on and run up the famous steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, just like our favorite Philly man, Rocky Balboa. But inside the museum is just as epic as we get immersed in Art like never before. You can’t go to Philly without seeing the birthplace of American Democracy, Independence Hall.
