Philadelphia is nationally and internationally recognized as America's "City of Murals." The mural arts program works with over 100 communities each year to create murals that reflect the culture of Philadelphia's neighborhoods. On every 3rd Wednesday and every 3rd Saturday, tours depart from the Independence Visitors Center at Sixth and Market Streets to take you on a tour of North Philadelphia murals. On this tour, you'll travel through Centro de Oro, the heart of Philadelphia's Latino community, and experience these impressive works of art.
