Rittenhouse Square District


The Scene: At the center of this posh neighborhood is a popular park called Rittenhouse Square, complete with a Parisian-style plaza and fountains.

Stroll Walnut Street, a.k.a. Rittenhouse Row, for some of the world's most famous retailers, high-end boutiques, and lively outdoor cafes.

A bustling business center by day, the district is a hotspot for elegant restaurants and cutting-edge cultural nightlife.

It is both an exciting area to visit and stay in, offering accommodations ranging from historic landmarks, five-diamond winners, bed and breakfasts, business hotels, and other luxurious properties.

The Big Thing: From free summer concerts to a dazzling Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony in December, Rittenhouse Square holds a variety of different events.

Rittenhouse is also the perfect neighborhood for indulgence, whether it's an extravagant European spa treatment or a candlelit dinner and night at the opera.

The district encompasses the southern stretch of the Avenue of the Arts where the glass-roof Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts shines as the stage for several performing arts groups.

Don't miss Center City Arts and Culture Week in October when top cultural organizations offer half-price tickets to hit shows.
