For those of you who are animal lovers, you’re going to love the next locations I will give you.
Even though a zoo is very common in most cities, one thing that you can’t find everywhere is a butterfly garden. Luckily, Pittsburgh has the Butterfly Forest starting from June all the way through September.
The best part about where the butterfly event is being held is that it is at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, two in one! Both are must-sees when you’re in Pittsburgh this summer.
The gardens provide all type of beautiful and colorful plants and flowers. The forest will give you a tour alongside the different types of butterflies that will light up the whole place. For only $15 at most, you can see and maybe even touch one the little flying beauties.
The city’s subway will also make it easier to get places without having to worry about finding a parking spot or pay for one!
If you’re going to spend the day with kids, take a trip to the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh. They will love it and you will also enjoy your time with all the workshop equipment that can teach something for people of all ages!
