Pittsburgh, PA 15212
One of the country’s most colorful landmarks, Randyland is artist Randy Gilson's own home and backyard—created by himself using paints, plants, plastic animals, yard sale finds and discarded construction materials. Visitors are invited to explore the public art displays in and around this whimsical outdoor museum which is located in the Mexican War Streets neighborhood. The area is also brimming with community gardens and features must-sees like the Mattress Factory Museum, a modern art museum which pioneered site-specific installation art. Randyland is open every day of the week and is free to visit, but donations are welcome. – Tripadvisor

Such a weird, quirky place, organized chaos at its finest. You could spend as little or as much time as you could ever want here. So much to look at and appreciate here. Great undertones of...
