Congress Hall Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
At the beginning of the founding of the United States, the capital was tentatively set in Philadelphia. Therefore, you can see many important old sites in Philadelphia, and the Old Congress Hall is one of the good places to visit. The Congress Chamber is part of the Independence Palace. From 1790 to 1800, many important federal meetings were held here. It is the oldest Congress office building in the United States. One corner of this quiet and quaint American red brick building reveals a strong historical charm. Several important conference halls are covered with gorgeous large carpets, and mahogany tables and chairs all reveal the congress hall. An air of heaviness and prestige.

The Pennsylvania Parliament is a small attraction, this attraction is free to visit, just beside the Independence Palace, really not eye-catching, this attraction is also a tour group must bring tourists.
I remember that this is free, when the Haihang Newspaper Group went to Philadelphia on the way to visit, like a group of 10 people, and then the official will give you a guide, but the whole process is in English.
Less impressive building, located next to the Independent Palace. But it was the early Congress of the United States. It is part of the Historic Park and is now free to visit. But I wasn't open when I went.
When the United States became independent, Philadelphia served as a temporary center. The parliamentary chamber is also here.
