Seeing as how it’s the birthplace of American democracy, there’s no shortage of things to do in Philadelphia—though there is a shortage of Philadelphia parking spots. Fortunately, many of the hotels in Philadelphia let visitors stow their rides in secured lots for a reasonable fee, and Newark Airport parking is always an option for tourists willing to rely on the city’s public transportation. If you’d like to take the car out to explore the Philadelphia Zoo or take the Philadelphia Inquirer’s famed walking tour, it may be worth downloading a parking-spot finder app. They eliminate the guesswork from locating one of the city’s myriad parking garages.
