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

Adventure Aquarium
Formerly the New Jersey State Aquarium, this venue, opened in 1992 as a first step in reclaiming the once-vital (and now denuded) Camden waterfront, is being totally renovated and revitalized in 2005.Up to 4,000 aquatic animals live here, and more exotic species are coming. The main attraction is a 760,000-gallon tank, the second largest (next to Epcot Center's) in the country, with stepped seat/benches arranged in a Greek amphitheater on the first floor. Also on the first floor is a Caribbean outpost with 1,000 tropical fish and beach birds. The second floor features interactive exhibits and strange ocean dwellers. New exhibits will include crocodiles in a West African river setting, sharks swimming alongside a 40-foot glass tunnel, and even the opportunity to swim alongside sharks.

Carpenters' Hall
Carpenters' Hall (1773) was the guildhall for -- guess who? -- carpenters. At the time, the city could use plenty of carpenters, since 18th-century Philadelphia was the fastest-growing urban area in all the Colonies and perhaps in the British Empire outside of London. Robert Smith, a Scottish member of the Carpenters' Company, designed the building (like most carpenters, he did architecture and contracting as well). He also designed the steeple of Christ Church, with the same calm Georgian lines. The edifice is made of Flemish Bond brick in a checkerboard pattern, with stone windowsills, superb woodwork, and a cupola that resembles a saltshaker.You'll be surprised at how small Carpenters' Hall is given the great events that transpired here. In 1774, the normal governmental channels to convey Colonial complaints to the Crown were felt inadequate, and a popular Committee of Correspondence debated in Carpenters' Hall. The more radical delegates, led by Patrick Henry, had already expressed treasonous wishes for independence, but most wanted to exhaust possibilities of bettering their relationship with the Crown first.What's here now isn't much -- an exhibit of Colonial building methods; some portraits; and Windsor chairs that seated the First Continental Congress. If some details seem to be from a later period, you're right: The fanlights above the north and south doors date from the 1790s, and the gilding dates from 1857. Hours are short because the Carpenters' Company still maintains the hall.

Atwater Kent Museum
The small and newly vitalized Atwater Kent Museum occupies an 1826 John Haviland building. The Atwater Kent shows you -- with more artifacts than the Visitor Center -- what Philadelphia was like from 1680 to today. Nothing, apparently, was too trivial to include in this collection, which jumps from dolls to dioramas, from cigar-store Indians to period toyshops. Sunbonnets, train tickets, rocking horses, ship models, and military uniforms all fill out the display. A hands-on history laboratory opened in 2001.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Philadelphia area, including:

Loews Philadelphia Hotel
The Loews, opened in spring 2000 in the former PSFS Bank tower, is the fine product of the marriage of an Art Deco architectural landmark and a prestigious hotel chain. The tower, located across from the Reading Terminal and the Convention Center, was the nation's first skyscraper of modern design and construction, with gleaming polished stone and clocks by Cartier. Loews Hotels turned the 1932 granite and glass building into a first-class property. The three-story entrance hall has been preserved, and rooms feature 10-foot ceilings, modern-Deco interiors, and miles of spectacular views. Business aids are extensive, but watch out for the surcharges levied on phone use. For convention travelers, the location is ideal, though this stretch of Market Street is a bit grittier than it is near Society Hill or Rittenhouse SquareSolefood is the hotel's seafood restaurant, and there is a pleasant lobby lounge off the restaurant; Channel 10, the local NBC affiliate, often uses the lobby as a set for interviews.

Penn Tower Hotel
Penn Tower is a very convenient, if less than stellar, version of a former Hilton, built with a direct skywalk to University Hospital and within steps of the University of Pennsylvania, 30th Street Station, the Civic Center, and Drexel University. The hotel part of the tower comprises floors 17 and 18, and there is an enclosed garage. U. Penn takes over more floors every year for medical offices. You'll have to get used to spirited displays of red and blue, Penn's colors, and a long lobby corridor of rough-textured concrete that leads to the reception desk. A coffee cart serves pastries and sandwiches in the lobby starting at 6am. The rooms and bathrooms were renovated in 2004, and are efficient and clean.

Philadelphia Airport Marriott Hotel
Opened in 1995 and renovated throughout in 2004, this is the only hotel linked by skywalk to Philadelphia International Airport, and the best of the airport options. The facility caters to business travelers with voice mail, speakerphone, free incoming faxes, and two dataport jacks. However, it's not a bad choice for families, since the soundproof rooms are mostly angled away from the runways, and it's very convenient to I-95. When you throw in the very complete fitness center and pool, the pleasant Riverbend restaurant, easy train or bus shuttle into Center City, and frequent weekend packages, it's well worth considering.
