[ Google Review ] Missouri’s Gateway Arch is a striking piece of minimalist architecture. Stretching across the skyline of St. Louis, the centerpiece of Gateway Arch National Park makes the city instantly recognizable in photographs. The 192-meter-tall arch was built to commemorate President Thomas Jefferson, who bought the Louisiana Territory and made possible westward expansion in the USA. You can ride a tram to the top of the stainless steel structure, where you can see up to 50 kilometers in either direction, giving bird’s-eye views of the city’s downtown and the Mississippi and Missouri rivers.

[ Google Review ] Although it was my first time and it was during winter time where the colors weren’t as much as it should’ve been. It was an amazing day. Had fun with my clients and enjoyed exploring new places. It was big and had few sections. It had the trees and greenery as well as for the ponds and waterfalls. Everything just looked amazing and it was a perfect weather for taking these photos specially that we had the father to be and he was a squinter and the cloud were in my side too. Nice people who resulted in great outcome. I would definitely go back again with the family because I am sure they would most definitely enjoy it. I’ll make sure I go toward the summer time to enjoy this time to the fullest with all the flowers and colors and see how the great scenery is going to look even better. https://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/visit/the-garden/tickets.aspx

[ Google Review ] Five star rating is well deserved! Ordered a few drinks along with the crab cakes and a lobster Po Boy, my first ever!! Both were so delicious. Also had the stuffed avocados, they sound good for avocado lovers like myself, but actually aren't the best. Stick to everything else and your good to go!

[ Google Review ] From Logan Utah.We went there with our newly Graduate from Fort Leonard wood son and his fiance. Very beautiful, expensive but worth it. Sad the fire show was down for repairs. We absolutely loved the inside light show and our waitress was Rachel and she was so awesome. She made our night so much fun and was so accommodating. She deserves a big pat on the back!

[ Google Review ] The curbside experience is awesome. Their is no waiting. They are very professional and courteous. I didn't like what I originally ordered and they made me something different w/o missing a beat in kindness. The dreamcicle has me totally addicted.

[ Google Review ] This park has everything, everything, a zoo, history museum, art museum, shows, trails, golf course, science museum, ice rink, soccer fields, everything. There is free parking, you may have to walk a ways to your destination, but you can park for free! And that's the best way to park! There is also decent and free bike parking, please bring your own locks. There are hills for hill running and sledding. The museums and zoo all have food options. This is the place to be.

[ Google Review ] A divine place with beautiful Byzantine style mosaic art. The hours of detailed work, and the amount of people and money that it must have taken to complete this building, is insane to think about. The walls and ceiling tell Bible stories, pay tribute to the saints, and showcase exquisite mosaics. It seats a lot of people. It has beautiful rooms all over. Absolutely breathtaking.
