What are the best things to do in St. Louis?

I’ve lived in Chicago my entire life, but I have many friends from college who moved to St. Louis because it was far cheaper. I think I’m going to venture down that way this summer. My friend told me that I can stay with him, but I might have to entertain myself some of the time. What are some of the best things to do in St. Louis?

Even though the city has only 300,000 people,
St. Louis
has a surprising amount of activities, shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Regardless of what your interests are, here are some of the best things to do in St. Louis:
  • Try one of the many culinary delights the city is known for, including St. Paul sandwiches, toasted ravioli, gooey butter cake, pork steaks, or the slinger.
  • Go to the City Museum, which can only be described as an indoor playground for adults and kids alike.
  • Grab a drink at the Venice Cafe, which features mosaic-adorned walls and other oddities.
  • Play around on the giant reptiles at Turtle Park.
  • Go to Broadway Oyster Bar for live music every night of the week—and the chance to try the savory alligator cheesecake.
  • Head to the top of the 630-foot Gateway Arch for an unforgettable view and experience.
