Best Things to do in Philly during the Democratic National Convention

The Democratic National Convention is coming to Philly.The next 5 days will have at least 40,000 out of town guests in Philadelphia.This includes delegates, media and lobbyists. They will be looking for places to go and eat. They will also want to enjoy the city.  So I'll share some of the top places they will have memorable experiences that they will savor.

I 'll suggest South Street. This is our answer to Bourbon Street in New Orleans. Not quite as festive or risqué but multiple places to eat and drink. Parking is expensive so take a taxi or public transportation.

The next place on the to do list is Chinatown. You will be in the heart of center city. Public transportation is the best means of access.

If you are looking for the best deals and places that are catering to the DNC, look no further. I would tend to stay in center city and in group of two of more. While most of your encounters will be civil and friendly, every major city has an element that preys on the naïve. Don't be naïve.

The Reading Terminal Market is a can't miss stop on your to do list. This is a reflection of Philadelphia with it's diversity and assortment of food under one roof. It is located in the heart of center city across from the convention center.

If you want the best that Philadelphia has to offer, I will share the best of Philly from Philadelphia Magazine. This is the list of winners from 2016 that covers everything. This includes where to get the best cheesesteak to water ice. It's going to be hot everyday so you may want to keep that thought in mind.

If you want gaming and convenient, you can have both at SugarHouse Casino. The recent expansion  and the breathtaking view of the river are the lasting memories that you can take back home.  If you win that will be the icing on the cake.
