Rittenhouse Square is a local favorite for relaxation amongst the reflecting pool, balustrade, classically designed urns, and ornamental lampposts. Grand oaks, maples, locusts, and other trees provide tranquil shade, while the flowerbeds are ablaze with color. Flower markets and art exhibits are held annually, and the nighttime brings many to the restaurants, bars, and clubs located along the square.
