The Pittsburgh Pirates may be hit-or-miss (mostly miss), but PNC Park is unquestionably one of the most beautiful ballparks in the country. The Pirates are out of town for the wedding weekend, but you can still walk around the park and the surrounding areas, which have beautiful views of the city and lots of fountains, statues, and trails.

I know some of you might have the itch to go out and gamble, Natali's I'm looking at you. The Rivers is right across the river from the hotel and downtown, and has a huge free parking lot. The Casino also has a hotel for those feeling more adventurous in their evening travel.

This downtown-adjacent section of Pittsburgh is home to several restaurants, coffee shops, street vendors, and international food markets, and is always a fun place to explore on Saturday or Sunday. Walk down Penn for the old-school feel of small businesses, or check out the new Terminal Building on Smallman for a bright and shiny new vibe.

If pop art is your thing, visit The Andy Warhol Museum on the North Shore — Pittsburgh’s largest museum dedicated to a single artist. It’s an easy add to a North Side sightseeing day; tickets, hours, and current exhibits are listed on their website or call (412) 237-8300 for more info.

Think of the Heinz History Center as Pittsburgh’s six-story attic—only this attic has an 11-foot ketchup bottle and a literal castle. Explore the H.J. Heinz Company exhibits with vintage pickle pins, delivery wagons, and that iconic ketchup bottle, then head to the two-floor “museum-within-a-museum” packed with Steelers, Pirates, and Penguins memorabilia. Don’t miss the actual set and puppets from Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood—standing next to King Friday XIII and Daniel Tiger’s clock feels like a warm hug from childhood.
