Pittsburgh has become a major U.S. travel destination due in part to its friendly, welcoming residents, only - in - Pittsburgh attractions, award-winning restaurants, champion sports teams, widely admired museums, and its 446 bridges. There are countless reasons to discover or rediscover Pittsburgh.
The majestic landscape of Pittsburgh includes rolling hills, and three iconic rivers – the Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio and distinct neighborhoods that Pittsburghers call home – all 90 of them. And every one of them are full of family-owned businesses and unique ethnic traditions.
One of its more well-known neighborhood is Pittsburgh’s Strip District where visitors sample mouth-watering cuisine from around the world.
Pittsburgh also has much to offer the most avid outdoor adventure seekers. Experience the city from the three rivers on a kayak tour, stand up paddling or a Gateway Clipper sightseeing cruise. Or, walk, run or bike along the 24 miles of riverfront trails.
Arts and culture lovers will find a lot of entertainment choices in the thriving Cultural District, where the Grammy Award-winning Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra performs in elegant Heinz Hall. The exciting Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre presents a powerful collection of classical and contemporary ballets, and Pittsburgh Opera creates live opera of the highest standard.
Even the venues are artistic. There’s the beautifully restored Benedum Center for the Performing Arts, an historic theater, the August Wilson African American Cultural Center with its exhibition galleries and theater and the intimate Byham and O’Reilly Theaters.
