Things To Do in Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh is a wonderful city dominated by bridges and set on the confluence of three rivers. Head to the downtown area, walk along Fourth Avenue and visit the Andy Warhol Museum. Pittsburgh is also a surprisingly green city, especially considering its steel reputation, For the best views take the Monongahela Incline up Mount Washington, and make sure you try a doorstep sandwich at Primanti Brothers. For further information on what to do in Pittsburgh go to the official Visit Pittsburgh website.
