Sister Cities Park

Celebrate nature in the heart of the city with the newly renovated Sister Cities Park along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway.

Located on Logan Square in front of the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul, Sister Cities Park is a welcoming space featuring a brand new café, boat pond, educational garden and commemorative fountain.

Young visitors can play in the Wissahickon-inspired Children’s Discovery Garden featuring winding pathways, scalable rocks and a meandering stream. Wade in the shallow waters of the nearby boat pond complete with rentable sailboats to harness the wind.

Sister Cities Plaza and Fountain

Within the bluestone plaza is the Sister Cities Fountain, a unique representation of the world with Philadelphia at its center. Jets of water playfully leap from 10 spouts representing Philadelphia’s ten sister cities, including Florence, Italy and Tel Aviv, Israel.

Milk & Honey Café

Housed in the eco-friendly pavilion and community room, Milk & Honey Café offers up quick-breakfasts for those heading to work and fresh lunches for those in need of a pit stop while exploring the Parkway.

The menu features many of Philadelphia’s own signature brands, from fresh-brewed La Colombe coffee to Bassets ice cream, South Street Philly bagels and BT brownies.
