US Airways - June 2014 - (Page 184)

Pushing Boundaries Active travelers will find plenty to see and do just outside of Philadelphia. You saw a concert at the Kimmel Center, explored the museums of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, cheered for the Phillies (hopefully!) at Citizens Bank Park, and people-watched in Rittenhouse Square. Ask a Philadelphian what you should do on your next visit, and they'll suggest you head for the countryside. It's great advice. Philadelphians know that the region's attractions don't end at the city's borders, especially in the summer. It's an ideal time to explore outlying towns and their gardens, parks, main streets, and waterways. Philly's Center City is the perfect starting point for your excursion, with numerous towns and attractions located within an hour's drive. Easily accessible by major roads or - for towns including Media, Ardmore, and Manayunk, among others - affordable public transportation. Rejuvenation is rarely so convenient. Garden Spaces If you prefer a leisurely pace, head to any one of these towns' public gardens and outdoor retreats. Drive 30 minutes northeast up I-95 to reach the 235-acre Silver Lake Nature Center in Bristol (silverlakenaturecenter.org), and watch for 184 JUNE 2014 usairwaysmag.com PHOTOS (CLOCKWISE FROM LEFT) BY R.
