 | | The Italians in particular have left their mark on South Philly, and visitors can get an authentic taste of Italian-American heritage at the lively commercial district and open-air marketplace on South 9th Street. |
 | | Unlike many sanitized and shrink-wrapped ethnic neighborhoods that are touted as tourist attractions in other cities, Philadelphia's Italian Market is the real deal, with a jumble of unpretentious shops and open-air stalls selling bargain clothing and household goods, fresh pasta and produce, meats and seafood, imported cheeses and irresistible Italian-style breads and pastries. |
