This lively neighborhood bustles with students and creative types, so there is no shortage of entertainment and activities, which is why it's one of the best places to stay (in my opinion) during a visit to Pittsburgh.

Oakland is home to a number of major universities, such as the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University and UPMC. While staying in Oakland, I decided to get to know the neighborhood and its universities by wandering through some of the beautiful campuses and the surrounding areas, which are full of students, lively bars and cheap eateries. Plus, if you're an architecture lover, you'll swoon over the architectural gems – like the French Gothic Revival Heinz Chapel – that you'll find all over the campuses.

Schenley Farms

Today, the Schenley Farms Historic District is viewed as a living museum of the 20th century architecture, and it's the perfect neighborhood for a leisurely afternoon stroll. I took many walks through Schenley Farms during my short weekend stay in Pittsburgh, and whenever I return to Pittsburgh, this will definitely be one of the first areas I visit.
