Philadelphia - Old Pine Street Presbyterian Church

Old Pine Street Church is the only pre-Revolutionary Presbyterian structure still standing in Philadelphia and the only colonial Presbyterian church. The design is Greek-revival edifice with Corinthian columns and a pair of giant doors that anchor the Church's north side while the rest of the temple is enveloped by an old cemetery replete with rows of tilting tombstones that lend a Charles Addams touch to the scene.

Must-see attractions nearby:
Inside is a large room with a massive ceiling with no visible means of support. Along the walls are recently re-stenciled patterns and symbols representing the church's history and ecumenical outlook "to lead people on a journey of faith from the remote past into the present and on into eternity."
