5. National Constitution Center

OLD CITY.   A visit to the National Constitution Center starts with a multi-media theater presentation that describes the main points of our country's most important document. As a family-oriented museum, many of the exhibits are interactive – guests may vote for their favorite president, or even take the presidential oath of office. Entrance is by timed ticket – to get your desired date and time, purchase tickets in advance.   (© 10Best)

Philly's role as the nation's birthplace receives an update at the gleaming National Constitution Center. The four-year-old museum salutes the Constitution through interactive exhibits, a live theater show, and more. The center features exhibits that provide insight into the democratic process. For example, don't miss the Palm Beach, Florida, voting booth from the 2000 Presidential election, which introduced "hanging chad" into the national lexicon. (from Cooking Light)

If you see the bell & the hall, make sure you see this, too. The musuem makes the great work of our founding fathers relevant today, and is fun for adults as well as kids. Our whole family loved the opening multimedia show with the live actor, mom & dad were reminded what makes our country great, and the kids loved all the interactive exhibits. The museum is a must-see for every citizen.
