What to do and see in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PA): The Best Art Museums
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."

If you like art museums that are different and have a funky alternative vibe, this place is for you. Their modern art exhibits are usually thought-provoking and original. If you are familiar with Yayoi Kusama and her infinity rooms, there are two of them at this venue. (But the first room is just a small space.) Kusama's room with fabulous red and white polka-dotted mannequins and mirrors invite photos. You will have fun taking pictures in this room! If you are an out-of-towner visiting for the first time, I suggest taking a Lyft or Uber to get there. It's a bit off the beaten path. If youl feel like seeing more modern art after visiting The Warhol, it is not far from there on the North Side.
