Pittsburgh attractions and Travel Tips

Car Rental in Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh has long been known for its industry, but there are a lot of exciting things to see in this Pennsylvanian city. Beautiful architectural structures date back to its glory days during the Gilded Age, while modern parks and gardens ensure that the Steel City remains green and fresh. Cheap car hire in Pittsburgh will allow you to get around, crossing some of the city's famous 446 bridges as you explore its attractions.

What can I see in Pittsburgh?

Pick up your cheap car rentals at Pittsburgh Airport PIT and decide which of the Carnegie Museums you'd like to visit first in your car rental from Pittsburgh. At the top of the list may well be the Carnegie Museum of Natural History or Carnegie Museum of Art, as they are set in the most impressive surroundings. The Carnegie Institute and Library complex is on the National Register of Historic Places and is beautiful inside and out. Dinosaur skeletons, an arctic exhibit, and the Hillman Hall of Minerals and Gems make the Museum of Natural History one of the best in the world. Drive your Pittsburgh car rental down there and you can check out the Museum of Art at the same time.

The most visited museum in town is the Carnegie Science Center, also easily reached by car hire in Pittsburgh. The planetarium, big screen, WWII submarine, and enormous robotics museum will inspire and delight kids and adults. Sports fans can take advantage of its great location: with your Pittsburgh car hire parked by the museum, you can also visit Heinz Field, home of the Steelers. Stadium tours are available.

There are four Carnegie museums: Natural History, Art, Science, and the Andy Warhol Museum. Only the first two are in the Carnegie complex and boast amazing Gilded Age architecture. The Andy Warhol Museum, a short drive across town in your rental car in Pittsburgh, is a tribute to one of the city's most famous sons. Although Warhol achieved fame in New York, he was born and raised here in Steel City, and the museum celebrates his life and works.

Nature in Pittsburgh

It may seem strange, but Steel City has more than its fair share of green spaces. Among them, one of the best is Point State Park. Set on 36 acres, this park marks the beginning of the Ohio River. Its famous fountain is worth watching and is packed with trails for hiking and exploring. Park your cheap car rental from Pittsburgh and wander through this calm green oasis.

You can also visit the Phipps Conservatory in your low cost car hire in Pittsburgh. This is a historic landmark set in its own lush, manicured botanical gardens. Rare and exotic plants can be seen on display here, with species from all over the world. The gardens are divided into a variety of styles and spread over 15 acres. The conservatory itself also has architectural interest and dates back to 1893.

Where can I take my kids in Pittsburgh?

The Carnegie museums are great for children, particularly the Natural History Museum and Science Center. Don't be afraid to bring the kids along, as the museums have interactive, hands-on exhibits that they're sure to enjoy.

Apart from the fun of the museums, Kennywood is a great spot for kids. This amusement park has something for all ages, with six rollercoasters as well as a Kiddieland area with gentle rides for the little ones. Get there with rental cars fromPittsburgh and enjoy a day of fun.
