Why you should go…

Allegheny County's seat, Pittsburgh sits where the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers form the Ohio, its downtown ringed by bridges and inclines. The city's converted steel-industry riverfronts now hold museums, sports stadiums, and trails, while neighborhoods from the Strip District to the South Side keep its blue-collar character alive.
