"Busy but worth it"
Broad is one of the busiest streets in Philly, with no small thanks going to the subway that runs beneath it. However, it's also one of the most vibrant streets in the city. Start at Spruce and go up to market, and look at all the little lit 'AA' signs, for Avenue of the Arts. If you're an artist seeking inspiration, or just a visitor wanting to take in a little culture, this is the place to be.

"Traveller friendly place"
Broad street is one of the major routes of Philadelphia. It has some, in fact a big number of some cool shopping outlets to tasty gourmet restaurants. It is quite a long street and also cuts through the Market street along its route. Being a major street, it remains occupied with people and vehicular traffic most of the time. There is a railway line that helps in easing the traffic. There are also some historical places of importance like the Kimmel theater for performing arts and the Wachovia spectrum. Where accommodation is concerned Double tree hotel is the best that I liked. The service and comfort is exceptionally good.
