Description:

During the holiday season, the sounds, smells, and tastes of Christmas fill Philadelphia's city center. With an expert guide leading the way, browse a bustling indoor market, listen to the world's largest pipe organ at a sound and light show, and stroll through a traditional Christmas village.

Begin at the famous Clothespin sculpture right in the heart of the city. Follow your guide first into Macy's Center City for its renowned sound and light Christmas show, which features music from the Wanamaker Organ, the largest pipe organ in the world. After experiencing a slice of East Coast Christmas history, move on to the Reading Terminal Market.

This historic Philly staple is made holiday-ready with a fantastic model train set—one that transports adults back to childhood and creates lasting memories for children. Then stroll from the festive indoor market to the crisp outdoor air of Love Park. Listen to the Christmas clatter—the air aglow with stunning lights and anticipation—and walk through the traditional Christmas Village.

After browsing the German holiday wares, food, and drink—including gingerbread and mulled wine—enjoy a snack on your way to do some window shopping. Take a look at the Comcast Center's 83-foot LED TV, which features classic carols and thematic animation, and walk through the city's vibrant shopping district.
Finish at Rittenhouse Square's illuminated Christmas tree, where you can continue shopping, eating, and relishing the holiday spirit.
