Exploring Mt. Lebanon


Saturday afternoon we took a drive to the South Hills to check out Mt. Lebanon. We have been trying to explore various neighborhoods and suburbs around the city. We heard a lot of people liked Mt. Lebanon so we decided to head down and drive around then have dinner there. Mt. Lebanon was named for two Cedar of Lebanon trees from Palestine that were planted in 1850 on Washington Road. We liked the community which includes many old churches, lots of older, well-maintained stone homes and a little 'downtown' with many shops and restaurants. We ate at Aladdin's which is a middle eastern eatery around Pittsburgh.
