Once at the top of Mount Washington, you have several observation decks that offer sweeping views of the city. In part because of its views, Mount Washington is one of those must visit places for visitors to the city.

For other spellbinding views of Pittsburgh, board the Duquesne Incline on the other side of Mount Washington. It, too, promises stellar views that include the fountain at the Point and Heinz Field.

You really can’t beat Pittsburgh’s skyline in the evening, the light from the buildings shimmering in the river. For one of the most relaxing ways to check out the skyline, book a trip on the Gateway Clipper Fleet.
