Great city with a lot of history. People were so friendly and nice. We did the cheese steak at Geno's and Pats both were fantastic. The art museum is a must to see . Many great works of art there. People there sooo friendly.

We did not go into the museum, just stopped for the Rocky Steps. Parking can be difficult; we had to park down the street and walk but parking was free. There are no public restrooms, at the time there were porta johns in the park across the street. While your here you can also stop at the Rocky Statue that is next to the steps

The statue is located next to the Rocky steps at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Parking is very limited, we parked for free down the street and walked over. There are no public restrooms, In the park across the street was porta johns. Some street vendors were selling shirts and drinks. The line for you to take your own pictures went quick, everyone was very respectful waiting their turn.

The statue is free but there are people there organising the queue etc. I wasn’t actually sure if they were genuine employed workers or just locals on a hustle? We didn’t bother to join the queue as we weren’t interested n having our photo taken with the statue. We wanted just the statue itself which we managed to get in between changeover of people.

The 72 steps leading up to the Philadelphia Museum of Art were made famous from the film 'Rocky' in 1976. A 10ft bronze Rocky statue was originally positioned on top of the steps where Sylvester Stallone stood but was later moved and placed on a pedestal in a grassy area near the foot of the steps to the right of the Museum. The position on top of the steps was replaced with a bronze inlay of Converse sneaker footprints with the name "Rocky" above them. There were three bronze statues commissioned, of the other two, one is owned by Sylvester Stallone and one is in the Schomberg Studios Gallery in Denver. The steps are one of the city's biggest tourist attractions.

As a kid we grew up with Rocky. It was good to run to Rocky every morning and around the area good for running. There are many routes you can take each morning. Phila being voted best walking city and for us a good running city along the cycling paths.

A nice statue of Philadelphia fighter Rocky Balboa, presenting him with his arms raised in triumph. It is situated near Philadelphia Museum of Art. If you want to take a photo with the statue you have to wait in a line, quite often really long.

Not much to say other than the obvious - it's a statue of Rocky from the movies. It is in front of the museum to the right of the steps which also feature in the first film. It is in a gated area and people tend to queue up and wait till they get to the front of the queue to get an unobstructed photo which was good; only waited a couple of minutes in January although I imagine it would be busier in peak season.

A must do in Philly. When we went there was a modest queue (line) that took about 15 mins to get through to the front. Be warned! There was a lady there at the front who gave the impression of being an official. On questioning she freely admitted she was not and that any tips were voluntary, but there was certainly pressure to pay her for taking your photo. My advice, agree with the person in front of you to take each others photo and don’t pay the “official” guide

Visited the statue on 8th March and it was brilliant. We walked the steps and took loads of pictures. Well worth the visit if your in the locality. Highly recommend a tour guide as they know a lot of the in depth of these monuments that you usually wouldn't know.
