THREE HOURS IN Pittsburgh THERE’S A LOT TO SEE AND DO IN JUST A FEW HOURS IN PITTSBURGH. Get out and experience some of the city’s greatest highlights. CONSIDER A TOUR, which can showcase the city in a way like no other, whether guided or self-guided. Love history, art or unique architecture? Walk or bike through Downtown and other neighborhoods along the riverfront trails, or get a fantastic view from the water aboard a Gateway Clipper riverboat cruise. Plan ahead to experience Pittsburgh like a local. VISIT ONE OF THE CITY’S 90 NEIGHBORHOODS. Some are hip, some historic, where modern homes meet Victorian mansions. Pittsburgh’s North Side, with iconic Penn Brewery and the expansive Riverview Park, is a place worth exploring. While there, don’t miss the National Aviary, the only dedicated indoor bird zoo in America. In the South Side discover walking trails, restaurants, small music venues and vintage shops. Walk down Walnut Street in Shadyside to browse local boutiques, name brands and great eateries. Get inspired at one of the art galleries in Garfield, or make something of your own at the Pittsburgh Glass Center. Trendy, walkable Lawrenceville is filled with cozy coffee shops and one-of-a-kind cuisine. EXPLORE A MUSEUM. Two of the country’s top museums, the Carnegie Museum of Art and Natural History, are located in Oakland. For something more abstract, try the Mattress Factory Museum in the North Side or The Andy Warhol Museum in the North Shore. And, sports lovers should definitely make a stop at The Clemente Museum in Lawrenceville, where Pittsburgh baseball hero Roberto Clemente is celebrated..
