No, Washington's army did not spend the winter of 1777-1778 in Philadelphia. Instead, they spent that harsh winter at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, about 18 miles northwest of Philadelphia. The troops faced extreme conditions, including cold weather and food shortages, but the time spent there was crucial for training and regrouping, ultimately strengthening the Continental Army.
