Liberty Bell Center
posted by DVC_Chris I am a sucker for patriotic symbols, that is why when I visit Philadelphia, I make sure to always visit one of the most visible symbols of American freedom, the Liberty Bell. There is a nice exhibit on the history of the bell, and the role that it has played in American history. |
