Philadelphia has already gotten a chance to experience five worlds of excitement and adventure with the 30-foot-tall ‘portal' to Universal Epic Universe located right at the bottom of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

The foot of the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art are hosting this weekend the Chronos, a 30-foot-tall replica of the icon of Universal Epic Universe and the gateway that guests will enter to experience the theme park’s five worlds.

Universal Orlando Resorts and its parks are owned by NBC10's parent company, Comcast.
