Phipps Conservatory is beautiful---the exhibits change regularly, so it's always an adventure to explore. I especially like to visit in winter.

Destinations in this Roadtrip:

• Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens
  Something's always blooming at Phipps Conservatory, a 13-room "crystal palace" that is one of the largest and finest Victorian glasshouses in the country. The botanical gardens feature lush tropical plants, palms, orchids, ferns and desert plants, as well as many special flower shows, exhibits and butterflies. Outdoor gardens and collections include the children's Discovery Garden, Japanese Courtyard Garden, bonsai, butterflies, perennials, annuals, herbs and aquatics.
• The Priory Hotel
  Once known as St. Mary's Parish, The Priory is now a delightful bed and breakfast. 24 beautifully furnished rooms including three suites are available. Breakfast is served every morning in the Inn's dining room. If you're looking for a romantic weekend get away, The Priory is where you'll want to stay.
• Carnegie Museum Of Art
  The Scaife Galleries, made possible by a gift of the Scaife Family and Foundation, more than doubled the exhibition space of the Museum of Art. With the support of Sarah Scaife, the museum purchased a number of important works that became the anchor of the collection. Her gifts to the museum included works by Perugino, Frans Hals, Goya, Munch, Gauguin, and leading French Impressionists. Sarah died in 1965. In her memory, her family and the Sarah Scaife Foundation gave the Scaife Gallery to the Carnegie Institute.
