Not only is Pittsburgh America's "most livable" city, it was recognized yesterday as a top travel destination.

Frommer's , one of the world's most popular travel Web sites and line of travel guidebooks, included the Steel City in its 2008 edition of the annual list, citing the city's cultural offerings and events planned for the city's 250th anniversary.

Toting attractions like the Carnegie Natural History Museum and The Andy Warhol Museum, Frommer's editorial staff wrote the city "retains its past glory in its universities, ethnic neighborhoods, and supremely engineered and iconic bridges that span the Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio rivers criss-crossing the city."

Thirteen cities around the world were included on the list.
