Nice art place to visit 7/13/2005

The Gallery offers a tremendous selection of clothing, jewelry, and collectibles reminiscent of medieval times. They also offer movie-themed items from films such as Lord of the Rings. Their clothing price has gone up (you could do better getting something custom made or on eBay), but you'll never find such a complete selection of medieval-themed items for sale.This Gallery is the place to go for First Fridays in Philadelphia. The art and atmosphere is great and there is always some great entertainment or poetry reading going on. If you are in around and want to check out a great Art Gallery, I highly recommend this place. more

Franklin Institute 6/29/2005

The Franklin Institute is a great attraction for Philadelphia. They have some wonderful exhibits and are always adding new items. There is so much to see you should really have 2 days to spend there. The tickets to get in are a bit pricey but if you're in the area when will you ever get back? Its well worth the money. The Tuttlemen Omniverse theature is great too. Ive seen quite a few shows there and not forget about the planetarium, They always have light shows and concerts. I also suggest you use public transportation as they do charge to park. more

A lot of fun! 6/24/2005

I've been to the Franklin Institute several times and each time they add something new. You really need to spend an entire day there to be able to see everything. Make sure you do the Omniverse theater. It costs extra, but it is really worth it. Parking is a bit steep, but I think the Franklin Institute makes it worth it. more
