1

Washington Square

At the corner of historic Washington Square, we'll catch a glimpse of where it all began: the site of the First Continental Congress. We'll explore the consequences of this historic conference before approaching the iconic Independence Hall.

2

Independence Hall

We're finally at Independence Hall, the birthplace of America. This is where the First Continental Congress unified the colonial states into one entity, working together. This is where military revolts and battles against the British were planned. This is also where the Second Continental Congress took place, when votes were gathered from across all the colonies. Ultimately, this is where the Declaration of Independence, and America, was brought to life. As we walk around this historic hall, we'll learn about additional American figures like John Hancock, Patrick Henry, and John Adams, and their contributions to the new nation. We'll also understand what this Independence Hall represented to colonial Americans -- and what it represents to modern Americans today. We'll also check out George Washington's statue out front, and dive into his backstory.

3

Liberty Bell Center

Next up: the Liberty Bell! We'll learn about what makes this bell iconic -- and what makes it so susceptible to cracks! As we explore its history and majesty, we'll also explore its significance in later years as Americans fought for their freedom from slavery, equal voting rights, and for true liberty.

4

Benjamin Franklin Museum

Then we'll head over to Ben Franklin's museum. This historic statesman figures heavily in America's past -- and we'll learn why. As we walk through the museum we'll also peel back the layers of his personality, learning about his vast store of knowledge and a huge diversity of interests. Then, we'll jump to the anti-hero to Franklin's hero: the traitor Benedict Arnold. As we continue to walk, we'll learn all about what Arnold planned to do -- and how.

5

The President's House

Next up, the very first White House! We'll explore the original presidential home of George Washington and then of John Adams. Here, we'll be able to dive into the history of the presidents' lives and better understand life during the colonia era.

6

Declaration House (Graff House)

Then we'll head over to another unique historic home: the Graff House. This is where Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, and where Ben Franklin helped him edit it. Walk in the footsteps of these earliest inklings of American freedom as you pass by this site! Plus, we'll take this opportunity to learn about Thomas Jefferson, and understand his life and contributions towards American independence.

7

The African American Museum in Philadelphia

Philadelphia's history may be all about independence and freedom, but that didn't apply to African-Americans! As we pass this wonderful museum, we'll continue to explore slavery and it's impact of early America. We'll also learn about the historic contributions of African-Americans like Crispus Attucks and others.

8

Franklin Square

Our journey into America's past then brings us to Franklin Square, where we can rest up and catch up on everything else that Ben Franklin did -- other than driving independence of course! We'll learn about his many book, ideas, and of course... experiments!

9

National Constitution Center

Next up, we'll pass by the National Constituion Center. Just like with the Declaration of Independence, we'll learn about how the colonists gathered here in Philadelphia to formalize their union into a concrete nation: the United States of America. We'll explore how American citizens' most fundamental rights were guaranteed, laying the basis for the American society today.

10

United States Mint

Our walk then brings us to the Mint! We'll learn about the gold and silver coins that formed the basis of the early American economy... and about the copper, nickel, and paper that makes our money today!

11

Benjamin Franklin's Grave

This brings us to Elfreth's Alley, the modern Instagram hot-spot of Philly and the historic origins of this great city. As the very first downtown, Elfreth's seen generations of changes... but has remained as quaint and colonial as ever!

12

Christ Church

We'll then walk over to historic Christ Church, where George Washington, Betsy Ross, and plenty of other American revolutionaries worshipped. We'll pass by the Church, diving into its historical significance and admiring its soaring architecture.

13

Museum of the American Revolution

That brings us to the Museum of the American Revolution! Our journey ends near here, allowing you the opportunity to step inside if you didn't get quite enough revolutionary history already!

Place Washington

Au coin de l'historique Washington Square, nous apercevrons là où tout a commencé : le site du premier congrès continental. Nous explorerons les conséquences de cette conférence historique avant d'aborder l'emblématique Independence Hall.

28

Salle de l'Indépendance

Nous sommes enfin à Independence Hall, le berceau de l'Amérique. C'est là que le premier congrès continental a unifié les États coloniaux en une seule entité, travaillant ensemble. C'est là que des révoltes militaires et des batailles contre les Britanniques ont été planifiées. C'est également là que le deuxième congrès continental a eu lieu, lorsque les votes ont été recueillis dans toutes les colonies. En fin de compte, c'est là que la déclaration d'indépendance et l'Amérique ont pris vie. En nous promenant dans cette salle historique, nous découvrirons d'autres personnalités américaines comme John Hancock, Patrick Henry et John Adams, et leurs contributions à la nouvelle nation. Nous comprendrons également ce que cet Independence Hall représentait pour les Américains coloniaux - et ce qu'il représente pour les Américains modernes aujourd'hui. Nous verrons également la statue de George Washington à l'avant et plongerons dans son histoire.

29

Centre Liberty Bell

Prochaine étape : la cloche de la liberté ! Nous découvrirons ce qui rend cette cloche emblématique et ce qui la rend si sensible aux fissures ! En explorant son histoire et sa majesté, nous explorerons également sa signification dans les années suivantes alors que les Américains se sont battus pour leur libération de l'esclavage, l'égalité des droits de vote et pour la vraie liberté.

30

Musée Benjamin Franklin

Ensuite, nous nous dirigerons vers le musée de Ben Franklin. Cet homme d'État historique figure fortement dans le passé de l'Amérique - et nous apprendrons pourquoi. En parcourant le musée, nous découvrirons également les couches de sa personnalité, en découvrant sa vaste réserve de connaissances et une grande diversité d'intérêts. Ensuite, nous passerons à l'anti-héros du héros de Franklin : le traître Benedict Arnold. En continuant à marcher, nous apprendrons tout sur ce qu'Arnold avait prévu de faire - et comment.

31

La maison du président

Ensuite, la toute première Maison Blanche ! Nous explorerons la résidence présidentielle d'origine de George Washington, puis de John Adams. Ici, nous pourrons plonger dans l'histoire de la vie des présidents et mieux comprendre la vie à l'époque coloniale.

Ensuite, nous nous dirigerons vers une autre maison historique unique : la Graff House. C'est là que Thomas Jefferson a écrit la Déclaration d'Indépendance et que Ben Franklin l'a aidé à l'éditer. Marchez sur les traces de ces premiers espoirs de la liberté américaine en passant devant ce site ! De plus, nous profiterons de cette occasion pour en savoir plus sur Thomas Jefferson et comprendre sa vie et ses contributions à l'indépendance américaine.

33

Le musée afro-américain de Philadelphie

L'histoire de Philadelphie est peut-être une question d'indépendance et de liberté, mais cela ne s'appliquait pas aux Afro-Américains ! En passant devant ce magnifique musée, nous continuerons à explorer l'esclavage et son impact sur l'Amérique primitive. Nous découvrirons également les contributions historiques des Afro-Américains comme Crispus Attucks et d'autres.

34

Place Franklin

Notre voyage dans le passé de l'Amérique nous amène ensuite à Franklin Square, où nous pouvons nous reposer et rattraper tout ce que Ben Franklin a fait, à part conduire de manière indépendante bien sûr ! Nous découvrirons ses nombreux livres, ses idées et bien sûr... ses expériences !

35

Centre national de constitution

Ensuite, nous passerons par le National Constituion Center. Tout comme avec la déclaration d'indépendance, nous apprendrons comment les colons se sont réunis ici à Philadelphie pour formaliser leur union en une nation concrète : les États-Unis d'Amérique. Nous explorerons comment les droits les plus fondamentaux des citoyens américains ont été garantis, jetant les bases de la société américaine d'aujourd'hui.

36

Monnaie des États-Unis

Notre balade nous amène ensuite à la Monnaie ! Nous en apprendrons davantage sur les pièces d'or et d'argent qui ont formé la base de la première économie américaine... et sur le cuivre, le nickel et le papier qui font notre argent aujourd'hui !

37

La tombe de Benjamin Franklin

Cela nous amène à Elfreth's Alley, le hot-spot Instagram moderne de Philadelphie et les origines historiques de cette grande ville. En tant que tout premier centre-ville, Elfreth a connu des générations de changements... mais est resté aussi pittoresque et colonial que jamais !

38

Église du Christ

Nous nous dirigerons ensuite vers l'historique Christ Church, où George Washington, Betsy Ross et de nombreux autres révolutionnaires américains ont adoré. Nous passerons devant l'église, plongeant dans son importance historique et admirant son architecture élancée.
