     Philadelphia started as small European settlement in the 17^th century, but soon the Swedish took over the area until 1663 when the English conquered the city. Since then it has become a location for revolutionaries and later would serve as the temporary capital of the US in 1790s. The city became the nations largest and a center for finance and culture. New buildings and roads reshaped it into the United States' first major industrial city.

     Consequently, Philadelphia became a city of contrasts, where renaissance buildings sit in the shadow of 21^st century skyscrapers. It is here in Philadelphia you can dine in French restaurant ''Le Bec-Fin'' and cross the road to a fast-food establishment or start your guided tour from the Independence Hall and then feast eyes on the modest Mario Lanza Museum.
