The Arch is iconic to St. Louis and definitely worth a ride to the top if you have time! There was a grand opening for a new museum July of 2018, the views are great, and there is a lot of fun history you can explore nearby (like the Old Courthouse).
The Cardinals will be playing at Busch Stadium this weekend! Experience Cardinal Nation first hand and enjoy a summertime classic: baseball and stadium snacks! -- https://www.mlb.com/cardinals/schedule/2019-08 And if going to the game doesn't sound fun, you could check out Ballpark Village, which is the whole area next to the stadium and the Arch. There's plenty to be explored there! -- https://www.stlballparkvillage.com/
The City Museum is great place for kids to be kids, and adults to be kids too! It's essentially a giant jungle gym. My descriptions won't do it justice, so visit their website and then visit them for real! You won't regret it.
The Hill is a historic area in St. Louis known for its authentic Italian dining and shops. This is Evan's favorite place in St. Louis. We have yet to explore everything here, but we do have a few faves: Charlie Gitto's, Zia's, and Cunetto's for lunch or dinner & Gelato di Riso and Missouri Baking Co. for dessert!
The Missouri Botanical Garden is a wonderful spot to have a nice stroll and enjoy nature and all its beauty. It's a 79-Acre Garden, but also include two other properties located elsewhere: the Sophia M. Sachs Butterfly House in Faust Park (located in nearby Chesterfield, MO) and Shaw Nature Reserve in Gray Summit, MO.
The Delmar Loop is a lively and entertaining street with a wide range of dining, shops, theaters, and more! Including, but not limited to - a Ben & Jerry's store, Mission Taco Joint, Vintage Vinyl, numerous boutiques, and a farmer's market on Saturday Mornings.
