When visiting Philadelphia, make sure that you schedule to visit the City Hall both inside (ticket through the Visitor Center) or just walk around the beautify building and take photos from different angle. I got to the Visitor Center just right before the door was closed so I spent time walking around admiring the statues and the building including the main plaza with a cafe and water fountain.

We had a very limited time in Philadelphia so when we found out we can go up in the tower of the City Hall and get some great views of the city we decided to do it as it wouldn't take long and we'd get a feel of Philly. Got our tickets at the visitor centre and the staff were really nice and helpful. They do time slotted tickets so you can pick your time.
