Despite being in the heart of Pennsylvania's hills, Pittsburgh feels like a waterside city. That's because it was built at the point where two large waterways combine to form the mighty Ohio River. Downtown's skyscrapers were built on the flat "Golden Triangle" between two of the rivers, while the other banks rise steeply into rolling countryside. Hiring a car in Pittsburgh is the best way of negotiating many of these slopes and more than 4 bridges crossing the rivers. Many of the streets are so steep that the pavements are stairways. The old 'Steel City' has mellowed into a popular cultural centre now ranked as one of the best to visit in the USA.

Pittsburgh's past industrial wealth created an impressive array of museums, parks, and education and research centres. Today's must-see attractions include the world-class Carnegie Museums, towering Cathedral of Learning at Pittsburgh University and the extensive museum solely dedicated to celebrated local artist Andy Warhol which can all be in easy reach if you hire a car in Pittsburgh. Most visitors take a ride on the Duquesne Incline funicular railway for the spectacular city views and fit in a baseball game at PNC Park, one of the US's most acclaimed sports arenas.
