2024 Tour
Masonic Temple
A lot of people think that the architecturally stunning headquarters of Pennsylvania’s Masons — we’re talking the secret society, not the people who work with cement — is closed to the public. Not only is it not closed to the public, but it offers hour-long tours of the historic building five times a day, Wednesday through Saturday. Yes, there’s a gift shop, should you need some mystical-looking 19th-century Masonic art to display. Bonus: You’re just steps away from Reading Terminal Market and Chinatown.
