Pittsburgh, a city of 311,000 is often overlooked and
underrated as a travel destination but it has more in the way of
diversions than many cities twice its size. Thanks, in part, to the
largess of long-dead steel barons, it boasts stand-out architecture and
a superior cultural infrastructure. Its natural assets — three rivers
flowing through town, a profusion of parks and eye-popping city views
from the precipice of Mount Washington — add to the allure. And, not
least, its multicultural neighborhoods offer rich, one-of-a-kind
flavor.
