During your Philadelphia vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Free Library of Philadelphia
Splendidly situated on the north side of Logan Circle, the Free Library of Philadelphia rivals the public libraries of Boston and New York for magnificence and diversity. The library and its twin, the Municipal Court, are copies of buildings in the Place de la Concorde in Paris (the library's on the left).The main lobby and the gallery always have some of the institution's riches on display, from medieval manuscripts to exhibits of modern bookbinding. Greeting cards and stationery are sold for reasonable prices, too. The second floor houses the best local history, travel, and resource collection in the city. The local 130,000-item map collection is fascinating. The third-floor rare book room hosts visitors Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm, with tours by appointment. If you're interested in manuscripts, children's literature, early printed books, and early American hornbooks, or you just want to see a stuffed raven, this is the place.If you're hungry, the Skyline Cafe (Mon-Fri 9am-4pm) is a very nice location for a snack and one of the only dining options on the Parkway. There's also an active concert and film series.

Mutter Museum
p>Kids will be fascinated by this hugely entertaining collection of medical oddities in an appropriately dark, dank, horror-film setting in a grand 19th-century building in Center City. Three operative words apply: goiters in jars. You'll also see 20,000 other spooky objects at the Mutter Museum, including the "Secret Tumor of Grover Cleveland" and plaster casts of famously conjoined twins Chang and Eng, housed in a paneled, double-height gallery within the College of Physicians. This medical institution was founded by Dr. Benjamin Rush, a signer of the Declaration of Independence; it's not an active medical school, but is an educational society with an important historical library. Everything in the Mutter, which began as a private collection in the 1850s, is very Young Frankenstein: 10,000 horrifying antique surgical implements, shelves of swollen brains floating in fluid in vintage glass jars, and even the thorax of John Wilkes Booth.

Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts
Located 2 blocks north of City Hall is the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA), a wonderful museum and teaching facility that was the first art school in the country (1805) and at one time the unquestioned leader of American Beaux Arts. After a major renovation in late 1994, the academy, housed in a stunning Frank Furness building, unveiled a major reinstallation of 300 works from the past 200 years; another 2004-2005 restoration effort is brightening the jewel tones of the gorgeous, hand-painted decorative ceilings and the overall look of the landmark museum and school.The ground floor houses an excellent bookstore, a cafe, and the academy's offices. A splendid staircase, designed by Furness, shines with red, gold, and blue. Each May the annual academy school exhibition takes over the museum. The school itself moved to 1301 Cherry St. years ago, but has acquired and is renovating the factory building to its north to recentralize operations.As is evident from the PAFA galleries, such early American painters as Gilbert Stuart, the Peale family, and Washington Allston congregated in Philadelphia, America's capital and wealthiest city. The main galleries feature works from the museum's collection of more than 6,000 canvases. The rotunda has been the scene of cultural events ever since Walt Whitman listened to concerts here. The adjoining rooms display works from the illustrious mid-19th-century years, when PAFA enjoyed its most innovative period.

Sheraton Suites Philadelphia Hotel
For just a bit more dough than the Four Points across the street requires, you get a suite with a beautifully furnished bedroom and living room that encircle a dramatic eight-story atrium. A 2001 rehab redecorated suites in white, brown, and maroon, with cherrywood furniture. The outer room contains a business desk and chair, convertible sofa bed, and armoire with TV. The bedroom, with the choice of a king or two twin beds, has another TV and phone, and bathrooms are similarly handsome.

Westin Philadelphia
The Westin opened with great fanfare as a gorgeous, paneled Ritz-Carlton in 1990. Although it's been fumbled with a bit by its owners, Starwood Hotels, this wonderful place seems to have emerged intact, with a blend of luxury amenities and service. And the location is convenient for business or leisure visits -- it is part of the Liberty Place shopping complex and a block from Walnut Street. While it's a bit higher priced than other Westins, it's a value compared to its luxury peers.A small porte-cochere and a ground-floor entrance on 17th Street lead to elevators that lift you up to the main lobby, which is a series of a living-room-like sitting rooms, plus a clubby bar and grill. The guest rooms feature bedside walnut tables, desks, firm beds with spindle-top headboards (and a luxurious four pillows), and Wedgwood or Sandwich glass lamps. Large walnut armoires house TVs, clothing drawers, and minibars. All rooms are provided with two phone lines and dataports. The modern bathrooms, improved by Westin, are outfitted with black-and-white marble, silver plate fixtures, magnifying mirrors, and lots of toiletries. The hotel runs frequent packages in tandem with museum exhibitions or other events.Facilities: Restaurant; lounge; small exercise facility; sauna; 24-hr. concierge; $8 transport to and from airport; fully equipped business center and meeting rooms; internal connection to the 70 Shops at Liberty Place; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; dry cleaning.
