During your Philadelphia vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
National Museum of American Jewish History
This is the only museum specifically dedicated to preserving and presenting Jewish participation in the development of the United States. The museum was established in 1976, although the congregation connected to it, Mikveh Israel, was established in Philadelphia in 1740. Enter close to 4th Street (passing Christ Church Cemetery, with Ben Franklin's grave) into a dark-brick lobby. The museum starts with a fascinating permanent exhibition, "Creating American Jews," combining reproductions of portraits and documents, actual diaries, letters, and oral histories from five diverse "snapshots" from today's six million American Jews and their predecessors. Smaller rotating exhibitions supplement this presentation, and there are moving and inspiring special events offered throughout the year. Attracting 40,000 visitors a year, the museum is usually cool and restful and makes a good break from a hot Independence Park tour. A small gift shop is attached.
Academy of Natural Sciences
If you're looking for dinosaurs, the Academy is the best place to find them. Kids love the big diorama halls, with cases of various species mounted and posed in authentic settings. A permanent display, "Dinosaurs Galore," features more than a dozen specimens, including a huge Tyrannosaurus rex with jaws agape. The Dig (weekends only) gives you an opportunity to dig for fossils in a re-created field station. The North American Hall, on the first floor, has enormous moose, buffalo, and bears. A small marine exhibit shows how some fish look different in ultraviolet light and how the bed of the Delaware River has changed since Penn landed in 1682.The second floor features groupings of Asian and African flora and fauna. Many of the cases have nearby headphones that tell you more about what you're seeing. Five or six live demonstrations are given here every day; the handlers are experts in conducting these sessions with rocks, birds, plants, and animals. The Egyptian mummy, a priest of a late dynasty, seems a bit out of place. Several daily demonstrations (called "Eco Shows") are given on the second floor and in the auditorium downstairs.Upstairs, "Outside In" is a touchable museum designed for children under 12, with a model campsite, fossils, minerals, and shells. It stimulates almost every sense: Children can see, feel, hear, and smell live turtles, mice, bees in a beehive, and snakes (all caged), and wander around mock forests and deserts. An exhibit of live butterflies rounds out the picture, along with frequent films. There's a brown-bag lunchroom and vending area with drinks and snacks, or visit the Chocolate Café.
The African-American Museum in Philadelphia
This museum, 3 blocks northwest of the Liberty Bell, is built in five split levels of ridged concrete (meant to evoke African mud housing) off a central atrium and ramp. As you ascend, you follow a path leading from the African roots of black Americans to the role they have played in U.S. history. Specific exhibitions change.The ground floor contains the admissions office, the gift shop, and the African Heritage Gallery. The second level, concentrating on slavery and captivity, is the most dramatic and informed part of the museum. It emphasizes that the slave trade was hardly exclusive to, or even predominant in, North America, and that it persisted in South America until 1870.The upper three levels, dealing with black history and culture after emancipation, lose some focus. Black cowboys, inventors, athletes, spokespeople, and business-people are all presented, along with the history of such organizations as the NAACP and CORE and the civil rights movements of the 1960s.
Holiday Inn Independence Mall
This eight-floor Holiday Inn, set back from the street, is the closest you can sleep to the Liberty Bell -- just turn the corner and you're at the pavilion that houses it. A renovation of the bedrooms and public spaces 5 years ago, and the addition of dataports, voice mail, and a concierge have given it a "commendable" rating within the Holiday Inn organization. Rooms are standard size and decor.
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. There is a wet bar with coffeemaker and small refrigerator in the kitchenette, and the bathroom has a marble-topped vanity. Airport noise is minimal.
Sheraton University City
This concrete block of a Sheraton, midway between Drexel University and the University of Pennsylvania, has a new traditional theme throughout, thanks to a recent renovation, luxurious plush beds, over-size business desks with ergonomic chairs, and all new amenities as of June 2004. It still remains popular with visiting parents and conference attendees, and it's 1 block from the subway, and 4 from the Amtrak station and the three University City hospitals. The Sheraton offers a heated outdoor pool and sun deck on the Chestnut Street side of the building. The restaurant Pallet offers upscale dining, while Java Concepts serves coffee daily from 6:30am.
