About St. Louis

St. Louis sits at the confluence of the Missouri and the Mississippi and is dominated by Eero Saarinen's 192-metre stainless-steel Gateway Arch, the tallest monument in the United States. A small tram inside one of the legs lifts visitors to the observation deck. The Old Courthouse where the Dred Scott decision was first heard, the Anheuser-Busch brewery and Forest Park (larger than Central Park, with its zoo, art museum and 1904 World's Fair pavilion) fill the standard upper-Mississippi shore-excursion day.
