Hip and Historic Pittsburgh Is a Must-See
Pittsburgh offers more activities than much larger cities. For example, entertainment options abound in a city with its own ballet, opera, and symphony and visiting Broadway series. For the younger crowd, Pittsburgh is Kidsburgh (dinosaurs and so much more!). And locals and visitors alike enjoy a seemingly endless array of arts and cultural attractions—many bequeathed by the industrialists who defined the city’s past. Recognized for its renaissance, the area has a certain Old World charm that mixes harmoniously with the emerging high-tech culture. It’s also one of the country’s greenest regions in more than one way, offering premier outdoor recreation as well as a record number of sustainable buildings, many housing attractions open to the public. The surrounding vista stuns, with urban views that provide both chills and romance. And distinct neighborhoods reveal their own unique character, offering enticements in all corners. There’s much to do in the city’s heart or within a short drive. Smart and friendly, Pittsburgh promises a mighty welcome. And this book offers a guide to anyone who wants to make the most of their time in this hip and historic destination.
As a former communications professional with the region’s tourism organization, Beth Geisler has hosted hundreds of travel journalists who came to tour Pittsburgh. Time after time, these guests reported on how cool and modern the city is, exceeding all expectations. Her passion is continuing to get this message out. She can find no reason to leave the city she loves and will continue to line up for pierogies, world-class performances, and all the other fabulous offerings that Pittsburgh holds.
