Top 7 Traveler Resources in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PA)

November 5, 2021 Stefan Strunk

Pittsburgh has been remade and reimagined. Think 24 miles of riverfront trails, beautiful parks and historic attractions. Home to 90 neighborhoods, the ‘Burgh feels authentic and unpretentious. No visit is complete without a trip to the Strip District or PNC Park, a ride up the Duquesne Incline or a stop at The Andy Warhol Museum. Architecture buffs love Pittsburgh for the amazing downtown buildings. Hollywood producers, do, too—the city has even been called the “Hollywood of the East."

We stopped by the Pittsburgh visitors center on Friday, November 1st. Barbara was very friendly, helpful and knowledgable. She happily provided more information about the Duquesne Incline and insisted it was a must do. We were initially unsure about it since someone in our party couldn't handle going up a lot of steps. But Barbara assured us that if we took an Uber to the top of the Incline we could ride down to the bottom and get an Uber to pick us up from the parking lot. It worked out perfectly. The day cleared up and we got some beautiful photos. It's really a unique experience and I recommend it to anybody visiting Pittsburgh. Thank you Barbara! :)

What a gorgeous building! I was visiting Pittsburgh and decided to check out the two museums and the library which are all very close together. Terrific place to work or study.

We went to the annual Home and Garden Show. There is parking available around the center. There is a road that allows you to drive up within feet of the entrance so you can easily drop off or pick people up. We decided to park at Heinz Field and take the free shuttle. There is a ground floor, basement-like exhibit hall area and and a much nicer, second floor that has tall ceilings, lots of natural light, and great views of the Ohio River, bridges, and the North Shore. The lower level isn’t anything special but the upper level is a special place and worth going to see.
