What better way to spend Father's Day than to visit the place where our nation was born, Phliadelphia!

At Independence National Historic Park you can visit the exact location the United States was born.  Both the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence were approved and signed in Independence Hall.  A few short steps away from Independence Hall you can visit the Liberty Bell.

The President's House-
George Washington and John Adams lived here when
the capital was in Philadelphia

The room where both the Declaration of Independence and the

Constitution were approved

Benjamin Franklin often wondered if the

sun was rising or if it was setting on the President's Chair. He decided it was rising.
