The National Constitution Center in Philadelphia is an exciting, educational well to learn about the U.S. Constitution and what it means to the people of America. It is also one of Philadelphia's newest landmarks. Truly a state-of-the-art facility, the Constitution Center is enjoyable for visitors of all ages. From the moment you enter the center, you're drawn in to the story of the Constitution and those who wrote and ratified it.

The tour begins with a multi-media presentation with live narrator, stirring music, and dozens of television screens. Visitors hear the words of the forefathers and their commitment to "securing the Blessings of liberty." After the initial presentation, visitors are welcome to browse the museum at their own pace. Children will love the opportunity to be "sworn in" as the President of the United States!

The Hall of Statues features life-size bronze likenesses of all the signers of the Constitution and families enjoy posing with their favorites. There's also a number of special presentations or lectures as well as an occasional concert and a cafeteria for lunch or a snack.
