Eastern State Penitentiary

The Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia, United States is an abandoned prison from 1829. Now a hauntingly beautiful ruin, this 1930’s-style fortress contains huge cell blocks that propagate a sense of fear and anxiety. Take a tour to learn about the most infamous prison of its time, including the cells of notorious criminals, the prison’s history, and its gradual decline. Visit the museum with artifacts left behind as a reminder of the prison’s past. This is an interesting experience all year round and definitely worth seeing, even though it cannot be taken in with only one visit.
