Pittsburgh is the second largest city in the eastern American state of Pennsylvania. Its airport served almost eight million passengers in 2013, many of whom will doubtless have been drawn here on business, as the Steel City has become an economic stronghold in the States. The influx of big business has brought with it some very desirable culture, too; with museums, galleries and some of the country's best-known sports teams. Hire a car from Pittsburgh International Airport and plan your trip not just into the city itself, but to the wider state of Pennsylvania, which also boasts the world-famous city of Philadelphia and some gorgeous coastline along Lake Erie.
Pittsburgh is made up of almost 100 different neighbourhoods, split roughly into five sections: the Downtown area is where you'll find most of the city's formidable skyscrapers, while the North and South Sides each boast their own cultural sites of interest. The East End contains many museums and galleries, and the West End features a stunning view of Downtown Pittsburgh, atop Mount Washington. Car hire in Pittsburgh will allow you to get around each of these rewarding areas with ease, and to head further afield in the state of Pennsylvania if you so wish; where more diverse cities and entertainment opportunities await.
