Once you're inside there is a ton of history on the bell, where all the bell has been, how the crack formed, and basically the history of the bell since its inception to today. Once you get to the end of the historical information you keep going straight and you get to the actual Liberty Bell. There is a line, but the security there will tell you there is no line and you should walk all around the bell. We got pictures in front of the bell, and behind the bell, and all around the bell. It's really cool to see up close in person and to think about all of the history that has gone down in America since its inception. Super cool thing to do if you're an American or a tourist visiting. This is one of a kind American history.

Just like most of the Philadelphia downtown, that story is now pure history. It was a rainy cold day and we had family from Florida in town. so when I looked at the website I was hopeful to discover a special place like I remembered. We walked into a cavernous cold emptiness and were encouraged by the guard to seek food a few blocks away. The only good news of the visit was the fact that the taco joint had some of the best tacos I've had in years! There is no food court! Only 3 food stands ... lots of cold emptiness ... look up and remember the glory days. Like most of lower Market Street area of Philadelphia the Bourse reflects the general public's disconnect from being actively engaged in the city. I once took visitors to the area to the Bourse even though I am not the shopping type of male ... now I do my best to avoid most sections of the city. Truly sad but if you are a tourist visiting the historical elements of Philadelphia, I would tell you don't bother going into the Bourse unless you're trying to escape the rain.

It was a beautiful place I remember when you first walked in there you could buy a shop bag. There was a buffet off to the left. great food then you walked in and there was a little perfume tourist shop, beautiful blonde lady owned. Had every kind of perfume a some . I never heard of all kind of touristy things jewelry it was a great little shop of course there were the usual food, shops, pizzas, steak sandwich, hoagies, oriental, cakes, and bakery. There was also a shop that had posters of rock, stars of musicians and beautiful cards. They were so unique and different in the back going out towards fourth Street of course you had a candy shop ice cream place on the opposite side, it was just a fun place. I went a couple years ago and was so disappointed. Everything was pricey just different. I remember going up to the second floor. There was a hairdressers there. There was a cool jewelry store called Terry ivory he had all unique different types of jewelry he would even have make things with beads. Of course they closed and open down Ocean City. I think but it wasn't the same. I don't know. I guess things changed different generations. It just lost its luster for me. Have a good day.
