- Ann OsipovaMay 30, 2017Very positive vibes 😹Everyone is running up the stairs like Rocky did 😍 also there are homeless people willing to take picture of you for $ 🤔
- Ville KauppiNovember 2, 2018Forget French steps - these are THE steps! Run the steps with other Rocky fans and enjoy the great view towards city.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
- Best place to run to in the city. Great view of the city and close to boathouse row. Definitely one of my favorite places in Philadelphia.
- The Ritz-CarltonMarch 11, 2015Stop and take a picture of the "Rocky Statue." Then start your run up the “Rocky Steps”; 72 stone steps before the entrance of the Philadelphia Museum of Art with a beautiful view of center city.
- It's super crowded but you can't beat the view. Watch out for the 35 or so cars illegally parked in the bike lane right in front. It's a great representation of Philly.
- Hamid Alan9aryAugust 13, 2019Fun place for Rocky fans, but no all the kids know him! There was fun stuff for kids to do in front of the steps. Parking is an issue here
- You can get the phlash bus to center city for 2$ and if you smile at the driver he'll let the child on for free
- Majed AlashariApril 9, 2020It is famous because of the movie but is it a normal steps that lead to the art museum. Rocky statue is next to the steps.
- Dave RichardApril 29, 2015Famous site from rocky - bring your dog! There was this hilarious black chihuahua running around when I visited.
- Rob DysonMarch 3, 2012Yes you will run up the steps, yes you will raise your arms aloft. No, you will not be alone or feel silly. Sly's sneaker feet smaller than I thought though (UK size 9 / 10?). ;)

- Jake SmithAugust 26, 2015You can take a cool picture of the back of the Rocky statue from about halfway up the staircase.
- Amanda JahanvashMarch 31, 2014Can you hear the theme music in the background? It's worth it for the view from the top !
- Julian KrinskyJune 18, 2012Once you make it up the 72-step climb, don't forget to take a picture with Rocky Balboa, just to the right of the steps.
- BC 😎🎶May 2, 2011Yes people do run up the stairs all day long. Some even have the theme song playing on a radio. Rocky statue is to the bottom right when facing the Museum.

- Philadelphia Film SocietyAugust 19, 2012Come to the top of the steps at night for a breath taking view of Philadephia!
- Ken SJune 27, 2011Since the statue is no longer at the top of the stairs it's a bit anti-climatic. Yo Adrian!!
- Harry JungApril 10, 2011Everyone should some by when it snows and sled down the stairs. Much more fun then running them.
- Find the bronze Converse sneaker prints, that's where you want your picture taken.

"Visitors get to see this from car or tour bus. I recommend walking back to it and taking time to appreciate the detail of the work. Jeanne d'Arc is one of my favorite historical heroines."
