"When Philadelphians say Center City, they mean downtown. It encompasses an area so big that it has sub-neighborhoods like Old City, Chinatown, and the Gayborhood. Philadelphia’s most iconic sites, like LOVE Park and the Liberty Bell, are located here. Center City has a little bit of everything: historical landmarks, concert halls along Avenue of the Arts, public art, museums, and an active nightlife. Though large, it’s easily navigable thanks to maps and signposts on major street corners." - MATADOR_NETWORK
