The city over brotherly love and sisterly affection has now added another illustrious title to the municipality: Most Walkable City.

There are many ways to take advantage of Philadelphia’s walkable city, from food tours to exploring the rich history the city has to offer, or even just a self-guided tour.

“Earning this title for the third consecutive year affirms what we’ve always known: Philadelphia is a city best experienced on foot,” said Angela Val, president & CEO of Visit Philadelphia. “It’s a reflection of how seamlessly our neighborhoods, culture and sense of community connect across the city. That ease of exploration helps visitors feel a deeper connection, and inspires them to return again and again.”

 Center City Philadelphia is super-easy to navigate — spanning 26 blocks from the Delaware River on the east to the Schuylkill River on the west. Only 2.4 miles separate Penn’s Landing and the Schuylkill River Trail — meaning you can walk from one end of Center City Philly to the other in just 50 minutes.

According to Visit Philly, the city was named one of the top 10 U.S. cities for food & drink by Food & Wine, one of America’s top destinations by Tripadvisor and the best city in America for Street Art (for the second time) by USA Today.
