INDEPENDENCE MALL (WPVI) -- Today's one of the most exciting days of the year on Independence Mall, when locals and tourists alike can get a taste of Philly food and Philly history, all for free.

It's Wawa Hoagie Day at the National Constitution Center.

Workers will be building the giant Wawa Hoagie inside the museum from 5:00 a.m. until 11:00 a.m. You can check out the Revolutionary War encampment on the museum's front lawn from 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Watch a special show called "What America Eats: The History of the Hoagie" at 11:30 a.m., 1:00 p.m., 3:00 p.m., and 5:00 p.m.
