Bicycle Heaven

Bicycle Heaven is the World's largest bicycle museum and bike shop.

Reviewed By ZanderAustralia - Australia

After reading about this establishment on TripAdvisor we felt compelled to visit and we were absolutely delighted we chose to do so. The building is unassuming but step inside and I felt transported to a different world. There were bikes everywhere, of every description and vintage. The ether smelled of bikes. My memory was taken back to my childhood and cycling in the hills with my pals on their Raleigh Choppers. Over 3000 bicycles crammed into every nook and cranny. I felt the passion of the person who had amassed this wonderful collection. What a place, what fun, what nostalgia.

This is one of our favorite places to go for a good meal. The service is quite good. The food is delicous. And, hit it on a good evening, the entertainment is good.

PNC Park

This retro, yet modern, urban park incorporates classic design elements with modern amenities for both spectators and athletes.

Went to the Pirates opening day as a part of our MLB Stadium tour and was not impressed. Pirates fans were great and created a good atmosphere but the facility itself was a disappointment. Stale, cold pretzels on opening day at the start of the game, Summer Shandy for $13.50/can. Multiple bathrooms had over flowing toilets.... was not managed well. Expect more from an MLB stadium....

This place is beautiful, and the folks there are so lovely. After visiting the Historical Society, the very kind gentleman there phoned over to the library so someone could show us around. We got a wonderful tour of the place inclusive of the music hall and it's spectacular.

Woodville Plantation

Reviewed By GeneseeOhio - Ohio

This National Historic Landmark is a real step back into history! Each Sunday afternoon, the frontier attired docents give an informative tour about the home, the families who lived there and life in the 1700's. Annually on the third Sunday in November "The Great Illumination" is recreated. It allows one to experience what the winter holidays were like for the wealthy in the eighteenth century. Other special events occur throughout the year and each is entertaining. Good education experience for children and adults!

Whoever came up with an ice cream flight…genius!!! My husband and I randomly decided to get some ice cream but we did not expect the awesomeness we were about to consume… lemon lavender and fat mint were our favorites. The whisky peach was excellent and the black sheep was great too! The staff was super friendly and exploring the toy shop after eating ice cream was a lot of fun. They even have board games laying around for you to enjoy while you eat your ice cream. Saying we were kids again would be cliche but we definitely were not adults. :)

Located directly south of downtown Pittsburgh, this lively neighborhood boasts an active business district in addition to scenic parks and recreational activities.

Reviewed By Katherine G - The Villages, Florida

We took the Monongehela Incline up and walked aways to spectacular outlook point of the Pittsburgh skyline. The fountain were the rivers meet was not working (cold-n-snowy) but on a sunny day I imagine that spot combined with looking out at the "yellow" bridges that line the rivers is spectacular. Monterray Bay Restaurant is located there. Shiloh Street was a local neighborhood street with shops, bars, a diner, and bakery. Pretty area.
