What are some good places to visit in Pittsburgh? -

I m trying to plan a trip for my boyfriend and myself in Pittsburgh in the middle of January for his birthday. I m already planning on taking him to a Penguins game (they re his favorite) but am not sure what else we could do for two days. Please Thanks!

My most recent visit to Pittsburgh was in May and I had a great time. I visited the National Aviary, The Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium, took the Ducks Tour, rode both the Duquense and Monongahela Inclines (you ll get beautiful views of the city from the top), Carnegie Science Center, Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, Mattress Factory, and the Andy Warhol Museum. I highly recommend all of those places to visit. The only thing that probably won t be operating that time of year are the Ducks Tours. You can shop at Macy s or Sak s downtown. There s also Station Square and Southside for shopping and dining. That s a great idea to see the Pittsburgh Penguins!
