Needless to say, the reputation of the Freedom Bell naturally feels like the Independence Palace can become a must-check place for Philadelphia attractions, as if every time you come to Philadelphia, you will also check in ritually. The two are also very close. Walking across the road is that the exhibition hall is open to the public for free. There is no need to buy tickets. The Independence Palace needs to book on the official website in advance. The ticket reservation fee of 1 yuan. The Free Bell has a separate exhibition hall, and the entrance needs to be checked. You can visit up close, you can walk to the free clock, you can surround 360 degrees before, but this time only opened 180 degrees, the other half stopped, but this advantage is that you can unlock a background free clock. The Liberty Bell was originally a palace in the Independence Palace, but was later displayed in the memorial on the lawn due to the cracking of the bell body. This time, the display stage at the visitor center was empty to another point of knowledge. When it arrived in Philadelphia in 1752, it first appeared a crack, and after several repairs there were cracks, so it was abandoned. And it was the clock that struck on July 4, 1776. The free clock has also experienced several migrations. Although the location of each relocation is not far away, people are still worried that there will be more serious cracks. They have also installed a microvariable displacement sensor that can test the movement of one millionth of a meter to test whether it is suitable for relocation. Every tour seems to unlock different little knowledge points, which is probably a great pleasure to travel.

I feel that the attractions in downtown Philadelphia are really excellent. This monument near the Freedom Bell is unified and managed by National Park. Opposite the Freedom Bell is a large visitor center. Here you can consult the travel guide for Philadelphia. The staff and volunteers here are also very enthusiastic. Help to give travel advice and answer consultation questions. There is also a small souvenir shop here, you can buy refrigerator stickers, books, postcards and other related Philadelphia souvenirs. There is also an exhibition in the visitor center. Although it will be more mini-pocket than the museum, it still does not affect the number of tourists here. If you come by car, there is also a parking lot on the ground floor of the independent palace visitor center for everyone to park. Although parking in downtown Philadelphia is not very convenient, parking spaces are not very easy to find. I recommend everyone to come to the underground parking lot of the visitor center to park. If you come in peak season, you need to come to the visitor center to apply for the ticket for the visit of the Independence Palace first, but I don’t know if it’s because of the epidemic. You don’t need to get a ticket when you come. You can enter the visit directly.

Franklin died here in 1790. The house itself was destroyed and no longer exists, but the original site was preserved and the Franklin Museum was established.

This time I came to Doylestown, mainly to check in at the castle. This Gothic and Byzantine castle-style building has 44 rooms, 18 fireplaces and 200 windows. When it comes to this castle, I have to mention the owner of the castle. Henry Chapman Mercer, a student of Harvard and Penn University, He was named archaeologist, collector and tile manufacturer, and then went to France and Germany to open his own ceramic factory. His porcelain was also used in Pennsylvania's Parliament House, Rockefeller's mansion, and the Hollywood Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles. The tour of the castle is guided by a guide, and will take everyone along the way, explaining while visiting. The castle is a Gothic and Byzantine style building designed by Mercer itself. What is more interesting is that at the beginning of the building, there was no design sketch, so it was conceived on the side of the building. The construction process was completely sky-high and empty. There was a castle with a strange building style and no ordinary building style, and there was no symmetrical wind in general buildings. The architecture is like Mercer's willful. 📌 Tour: ▪️ The castle is located in a huge courtyard, there is a tree-lined path in front of the door, all the way through the tree-lined road, and the huge castle is introduced. The back of the castle is the parking lot. The pottery factory behind the castle is also open to the public as a museum. ▫️ Museum The interior has a variety of styles of roof decoration, there is also a library in the museum, as a Harvard and Penn University students, people can not help but feel that knowledge is wealth, the library has two floors, the collection of books covers a wide range, the reception room is very large, but once entering the bedroom area, It feels more pocket mini, it is said that Mercer also installed 200 windows for the building, so the light is not very dark, the whole castle is like a huge maze, it feels like if it is not a guided tour, it is easy to get lost in it.
