Philadelphia is Pennsylvania's largest city and one of the oldest and most historically significant cities in the United States, home to approximately 1.6 million city residents and 6.2 million in the metro area. It operates on Eastern Time (EST/EDT). Philadelphia was the birthplace of American democracy — the Declaration of Independence was signed here on July 4, 1776, and the US Constitution was drafted and signed here in 1787. Independence Hall (where both were signed) and the Liberty Bell are UNESCO World Heritage Sites and the most potent symbols of American founding ideals. The city served as the nation's capital from 1790 to 1800. Philadelphia has one of America's greatest concentrations of museums — the Philadelphia Museum of Art (famous for the Rocky Balboa steps), the Barnes Foundation, and the National Constitution Center. The city's cheese steak sandwich (Philly cheesesteak) and soft pretzel culture make it a food city with strong identity.
