Go on weekend if you can to avoid school trips and long lines. Displays with history of the bell, and then the actually bell itself is amazing part of history.

We came to Philly on a day trip from NYC and thought we had better see this. Maybe some of the significance was lost of me (being Australian) but I certainly was not blown away by this place. I think it is a must do and reading through the exhibitions is interesting but there is not enough here to keep... More

It is a novel piece of American history. Unfortunately, the live Park Ranger talks, which were the best part, seem to have been discontinued. A real shame. Still, it and the hall give a good experience.

When we got there the line was the length of the building but we only had to wait 15-20 minutes to get in. The bell is smaller in person than I imagined it would be.

Of course, I had to see the Liberty Bell. There was a long line but don't let it scare you away. It moves rather quickly. As you enter, you will be able to read about the history on the displays. Liberty Bell is at the end. A good photo opp.

What can I say? If you haven't seen it you must. One of the symbols of American freedom.
