Added: 05/02/2006

The center of the American steel industry for several decades, Pittsburg, also known as the Iron City or the Steel City, is located in Western Pennsylvania and recognized as the second largest city within the state. For the majority of visitors it is associated with belching steel mills and railroads, yet the city has much to offer in terms of cultural attractions, like contemporary sculptures, beautiful concert halls, museums, galleries and libraries among other cultural institutions. Having said that, Pittsburgh hotels are an ideal choice for business and leisure travelers.

The city's natural beauty is also unmistakable, with the hilly landscape sliced by the Monongahela, Allegheny and Ohio rivers, visible at every turn.
