Philadelphia is a great city. At times students at UPenn tend to stick to the campus facilities, but it is worth to get accustomed to the city and take advantage of its many attraction: Philadelphia Museum of Art with an amazing collection, 5th street, the Church on 22nd and Locust is a nice venue for concerts, West Philly is a charming neighbourhood going through a gentrification process right next to the campus, as well as Camden - the city across the bridge in NJ (not very prosperous but definitely interesting).
