Places To Go In St. Louis
It can be difficult to discern where the waters of the Mississippi River end and where the star-dotted evening sky begins, but sandwiched betwixt these two natural wonders lies a glittering metropolis filled with unparalleled potential. St. Louis rose from the grassy plains to emerge as a destination of choice for wise wanderers like you, so if your inner traveler is pondering what to do in St. Louis, set it at ease by painting a picture of potential only possible in the Gateway City.
Things to Do in St. Louis
Let the wind envelop you as you gaze upon a stunning panorama from the apex of the notorious Gateway Arch. After your descent to terra firma, stroll along the foliage-flanked trails in Forest Park, following your whims towards additional St. Louis attractions scattered throughout the grounds. As you wander through the halls of the St. Louis Art Museum, the priceless collections will leave you breathless. Afterwards, follow your nose to crispy local-style pizza squares, best enjoyed alongside an icy beer. Locals know the best digestif is a slice of butter cake, generously dusted with sparkling sugar drifts and complemented with a piquant cup of lemon tea.
As sunlight wanes and the first stars twinkle in the evening sky, nearby St. Louis hotels hold the promise of satiny-soft sheets and hospitality in spades to transport you to slumber. You’ll awaken refreshed and ready to enjoy a flaky croissant and cup (or two) of locally roasted coffee.
If the journey is the destination, then the Gateway City is your getaway. Allow Travelocity to combine the best St. Louis vacation packages to tap the best-kept secrets of St. Louis and craft an itinerary as unique as you.
