Access outside of these times is not permitted. The Neighborhood: Most people know about West Philadelphia from the show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The famous theme song intro put West Philly on the map and since 1990, the neighborhood has been enshrouded in a Will Smith mystique. But there's more to West Philadelphia than just that one verse. Philadelphia is known for being a city comprised of diverse neighborhoods that were once independent towns. Over a few centuries, these towns were engulfed as the city expanded. Once you cross the Schuylkill River along Center City’s western banks, West Philadelphia is a city on its own filled with Victorian mansions, an intricate network of trollies, an artist scene, and vibrant immigrant communities unlike any other section of Philadelphia. If you come to Philadelphia and don’t go to West Philly, you're missing out! Getting Around: Philadelphia, one of the country’s most walkable cities, is incredibly easy to navigate either by foot or by public transportation. That just leaves one question: Where to park the car? On-Street Parking Philadelphia has thousands of metered spots throughout the city, perfect if you only plan to park for an hour or two. For paid long-term parking, we'd be happy to share options with you once you book. For moving around, you'll also find several bus stops, bike ride-sharing stations, and subway stations. Otherwise, we recommend moving around the city using Uber or Lyft - its fairly affordable!
