"Park here before visiting Independence Hall. Get a better understanding of the collection of historical sites and their order before starting your tour."

Very nice and very informative. Open daily 9am to 5pm. Friendly staff and information center. See pics for more details. Paid Parking 🅿️ available nearby. Thanks 🙏👍

Very cool spot lots of history. November and December require an online reservation and only costs a dollar and can be done onsite. Tours are about every 20 minutes.

If you want to visit inside the Constitutional Hall be sure to get your free Ranger LED lecture tickets for entry prior to going to constitutional Hall. The tickets can be obtained at constitutional Visitor Center one block away on the other side of the Liberty Bell on Market Street. This is a worthwhile historical tour with wonderful facts and information about the courageous acts of the founding fathers to declare independence from Britain.

Great experience with a tour guide. I would recommend this to anyone looking to see another side of Philadelphia. Photos are from some of the other parts.

Very nice building that has several information desks and a gift shop along with some food options. There was some informational plaques about the history of the area that were nice to read and the restrooms were easy to find and clean. This a great place to stop in since you're already in the area for the bell and independence hall.
