St. Louis is Surprisingly Fun! 😍

Gateway Arch 🏗️ The smallest U.S. national park with the world’s tallest arch! Ride the tiny elevator ($) to the top—but be warned: you’ll be crouching at small windows for views. 😅 Free alternative: Walk around + visit the underground museum (super interesting history!). Washington University (WUSTL) 🎓 "The school that rejected me..." 😤 Gorgeous gothic campus—perfect for pretending you’re a student (we’ve all been there!). Saint Louis Art Museum 🖼️ Shockingly good for a "Midwest city"! Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso + ancient Chinese art. Located in Forest Park (bigger than NYC’s Central Park!). Anheuser-Busch Brewery 🍺 FREE tour of the Budweiser HQ! See how beer’s made + get a free sample. Pro tip: The Clydesdale horses are iconic! Cathedral Basilica ⛪ Largest mosaic collection in the world—every inch glitters! ✨ So peaceful, even with tourists. Blues Museum 🎸 Small but cool if you love music history (blues → rock → jazz → hip-hop!). Skip if short on time. Cahokia Mounds ⛰️ A UNESCO site... but just big grassy hills when the museum’s closed (lol). Hidden Gem: Ted Drewes Frozen Custard A Route 66 legend! $1 vanilla cones = best deal ever. #Travel #USA #StLouis #HiddenGems #ArchSelfies #MuseumHop #BreweryTour #RoadTripVibes
