The sight of the Gateway Arch is awe-inspiring as one approaches downtown St. Louis. The sunset bouncing off of the towering monument to westward expansion invites the weary traveler to come and enjoy the fantastic city that has been the home to so much rich history. It has a look that is all its own, of red brick and cobblestone streets, terra cotta friezes and stained glass. The Mississippi River laps against a cobblestone levee and invites anyone to step in and enjoy a city which is full of exciting things to do and see for all generations.
