Pittsburgh is full of interesting attractions for everyone. The Carnegie Museum of Natural History boasts an unparalleled collection of dinosaurs in the famed Dinosaur Hall. Some other particularly interesting museums include the Andy Warhol Museum (Warhol and related collections), the Mattress Factory (modern installation works), and the Heinz History Center (covering the history of the people and industry of the Pittsburgh region - it's not just about ketchup!).
Some excellent family attractions include Kennywood, Sandcastle Water Park, the Pittsburgh Zoo, the Children's Museum, and the Carnegie Science Center. You might also visit the Phipps Conservatory, the National Aviary, or try to catch a Pirates game at PNC Park.
There is extensive shopping available on McKnight Road, where the hotel is located, but you might also want to visit the shops and restaurants at Station Square and along Carson Street in Pittsburgh's South Side.
These links will take you to more information about these Pittsburgh attractions, but feel free to ask Kristin or Mark about anything you'd like to see or do during your stay in Pittsburgh.
