PHILADELPHIA, PA — Franklin Square is becoming a beacon of merriment and fun in the heart of Philadelphia this winter. This year, the square has lined up an array of festive attractions and special events to keep locals entertained throughout the colder months.
Golf enthusiasts can enjoy a unique holiday-themed experience at Chilly Philly Mini Golf.
