    Philly is the mural capital of the world. I’ve painted 350 in Philly myself. But Philly is a big city. So they’re really spread out even though there are 4,500+ murals. Certain areas have a bunch in one area…but you have to know where to go for that. Graffiti Pier should have been on this list to check out!

      It is no accident that Philly reminds visitors of London. Modern Philadelphia was designed by a famous urban architect who grew up in West Philly. His name is Edmund Bacon. One of his children is the actor Kevin Bacon. Edmund was heavily influenced by London.

    If you ever come back (or anyone who is coming to Philly), take a Mural Arts Tour or find a map of where the murals are, they really are everywhere (but no, not every block). They are also spread throughout the entire city, mostly in neighborhoods. I think my favorite is the collection "Love Letters" by Espo which you can see riding the El to and from West Philly.
    Streets Dept is another org that has mural, street art and public art tours as well.

    Gene Wilder. The OG Willy Wonka.
    For a short time a loooooong time ago in my teens and 20s I looooved Tim Burton. He was very novel during that time in the 80s and 90s, but as I passed through the ages, I can't stand them. It's all style over substance. I still like Batman, Batman Returns, and Sleepy Hollow.

    I being a native born Philadelphia gladiator appreciate your positive attitude to boost interest. Kudos on excellent production values. But you were callous in your disregard, and disrespect for the pure dangerous violence criminality that intersperses the city. You can die down town at night. Any night, you can wind up on the evening news as another casualty. Not all those killed or injured criminally were stupid , most were just uninformed, and their deaths were brutal. I dare you to do any documentary on north Philadelphia unarmed. Or attempts on your life waiting for the ELLEVATED ( EL) or subway, or just for thrills 30th street, go ahead walk around there. Can you outrun a 38 caliber bullet slug ? Best wishes. You did not give even a cautionary note which is appalling. Did you not buy a news paper while visiting, guess not ? Best wishes, perhaps a little critical honesty might be refreshing. Good luck.

    • @TheDetourDuo
      @TheDetourDuo  7 місяців тому +2

      Really appreciate your input Walter, and thank you for the positive remark. Here's the thing though. We get this comment on literally every video of a city we visit. From New York to Baltimore (where I'm from btw) to North Carolina and San Diego. Even small towns. The thing is this video is highlighting our experience, who like most tourists won't venture far from where the main attractions are. We also rarely, if ever, travel out at night anywhere we go. Sure there are still dangers traveling to heavily populated areas in broad daylight, but that's just like there are everywhere you travel in most of the world. We didn't bring up North Philly because we didn't venture into North Philly. And we certainly didn't tell anyone to go into North Philly. You can call it luck or naive but why be negative when we didn't have a negative experience? If anyone is visiting a place, I'd hope that they would do a little more research than just watching our video to plan an itinerary. Being smart while traveling absolutely decreases risk exponentially.
