...The US Mint is worth checking out...

Indeed. And if I recall, it's a walk from the Liberty Bell, and Independence Square.

When I went to Philly in the 70's I got a hotel room a few blocks away from everything.

I parked the car in hotel garage all the time I was there and walked to see everything.

back then you could actually touch the Liberty Bell

and the mint tour is a must set for all.

If your ever in D.C. you can see them printing money and huge skids full on uncut sheets of bills

I went 2 years ago and loved it, Im goin back at the end of August with family for vacay, I will say this " The air smells of chocolate" when you wake up if you have stayed close, or even driving nearby, the smell of chocolate takes you to a sweet craving like never before, I absolutely love the park and the 3D ride thing, that is wild, Storm Runner is a roller coaster that is a thrust force coaster design 0-85 in so many seconds. kinda like Cedar Points Top Thrill Dragster also another highly recommended vacation spot, Cedar Point Ohio. Or Aerosmiths Rockin Rollercoaster in Orlando FL. Anywho Chocolate world is cool and they also have lots of diffrent candy that you wont see anywhere else kinda of like a test, If you go have fun, definetly a nice fun place to see and take the family !!!
