If you’re in downtown Pittsburgh, seek out the gargantuan mirrored buildings and you’ll find PPG Place. This spot is home to a beautiful Christmas tree and an ice skating rink. Inside, there’s a great Santas of the World exhibit.
It’s lovely both day and night. This is just a quick snap from the car window but I would highly recommend spending a holiday weekend wandering around Pittsburgh to check out the shops, decorations and museums. There are so many amazing museums.
Bonus points if you can time your visit with Light Up Night, the most festive day of the year in the city. You won’t regret it!
I was just telling my friend the other day that ice skating is one of those activities I have given up for the duration. Falling on ice at my age – no thanks! I remember doing “crack the whip” at an outdoor rink as a kid, and the person on the outside would regularly go flying into the weeds!
I have never ice skated but it sounds awful. It’s beautiful but not for me!
