Countryside of Philadelpha
Stately homes and lush scenery
Both Brandywine and Valley Forge played noteworthy roles in the American Revolutionary War: The former saw victory go to British Gen. William Howe, while the latter was the site of the 1777–1778 winter encampment of the Continental Army, from which emerged a spirited and rededicated fighting force. Living history villages include a Revolutionary War hospital and soldier’s orphan school. Sites welcome visitors to experience stories brought to life in lively and informative ways, including historical interpreters, hands-on demonstrations and multimedia presentations.
