How far is the Liberty Bell from the airport in Philly?
My 7 year old and I have a 3+ hour layover in Philadelphia next week. If it’s not too far away, I’d like to leave the airport and take a cab to the Liberty Bell. Neither of us has ever seen it and I think it would be neat to see it in person. How long would it take to get there from the airport and do you think I’ll have enough time to get back through security and everything before catching our flight overseas?
Thanks!
Well, it depends on the time of day.
During non-rush hour, you should be able to take a cab to the Liberty Bell in about a half an hour. Once you get there, it is possible the bell itself will have line.
While the Philly airport is usually delayed with flights and baggage claim, their security entrance usually runs pretty smooth.
If you have a 3.5 hour layover, you should be ok, but I certainly wouldn’t take your time.

Wayne’s World [VHS] $0.95 TV’s Saturday Night Live has been like the evil twin of the legendary alchemist’s stone, which supposedly could turn lead into gold. SNL usually does the opposite, taking rich comic premises from short skits and extrapolating them into overblown and unfunny full-length films. (“The Coneheads”? Puh-leeze!) But this film proved to be the exception, thanks to Mike Myers’s wonderfully rude lowbrow hum… |
