Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens

“Great museum dedicated to the Pittsburgh-born artist. The museum also has special exhibits, a live music series worth checking out, and a good gift shop.”

“We do not visit this place enough. It is one of the better museums in the country. Spend the afternoon here and then walk through Oakland and see the sites. ”

“Frick Park is an awesome 640 acre city park, easily accessible from this place. You can walk or drive the 0.6 miles to the entrance at the Frick Environmental Center, where you can walk or jog on any of the plentiful (hilly) hiking trails. There are also two playground areas at the edges of the park (one is the "Blue Slide Playground" made semi-famous by rapper Mac Miller). ”

“The Pittsburgh Zoo is one of only six major zoo and aquarium combinations in the United States. Located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania's Highland Park, the zoo sits on 77 acres of park land where it exhibits more than 4,000 animals representing 475 species, including 20 threatened or endangered species. Address: 7370 Baker St, Pittsburgh, PA 15206”

“Small art museum and antique car museum. The grounds of the museum are very nice, there is a gift shop and cafe, and you can also walk to nearby Frick Park. ”
