Randyland
A colorful collage playground created by artist Randy Gilson, who painted his backyard in rainbow colors. It is known as the most photogenic spot in Pittsburgh.
Every wall, staircase, table and chair in this small yard is painted in bright colors and filled with plastic flamingos, dolls and upcycled art installations, creating a cheerful, childlike atmosphere. The artist often chats with visitors in the yard himself. Entry is free, though donations are welcome. A visit takes about 30 minutes. Randyland is on the North Side, about 5 minutes' walk from the Mattress Factory. Opening hours are not fixed, so check the official website before you go.
