Hailed as the "Birthplace of America," Philadelphia offers cultural gems, plenty of history and cheesy-goodness food. It'll be a challenge narrowing down which places to take your discount Philadelphia rental car while visiting the old stomping grounds of our founding fathers.
A trip to Philly wouldn't be complete without a stop at Independence Hall. This colonial-era building was the site of the signings of both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. The original draft of the Constitution and its inkstand are still on display in the west wing of the building. Access is free to the public, but be sure to head over early in your rental car -- tickets are known to sell out before 1 p.m.
Now it's time to channel your inner Rocky. Take your rental car for a short ride over to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Made famous in the film "Rocky," the grounds here pay tribute with a statue of the famous Italian Stallion. However, it's what's inside the Roman-Greco building that draws in so many travelers. See masterpieces from names like Cezanne, Duchamp and Brancusi all under one roof.
Don't forget to try a famous Philly cheesesteak while you're here. Although Pat's and Geno's still go head-to-head for the unofficial title of "top cheesesteak," there are plenty of places to indulge in this tasty sandwich across the city.
