St. Louis 5-Day 4-Night Easy Travel Guide.

Accommodation: Hyatt Regency St. Louis at The Arch is recommended. Although there were few people around during Christmas, and the downtown area was a bit unsafe, please stay alert. Fortunately, the hotel is very close to the iconic landmark The Arch, and it takes about 7 minutes to walk to the light rail station, which is convenient for travel. Activities: This itinerary is mainly based on museums, but some museums were closed due to bad weather. However, the following attractions are still highly recommended: 1. Saint Louis Art Museum It's a bit like a miniature version of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Although it's smaller in scale, the exhibits are exquisite and a must-see! 2. Missouri History Museum As the name suggests, this museum mainly tells the history of the Midwest. Although it's not big, the World's Fair exhibition hall is highly recommended! 3. The Arch Although the cable car has been running for decades, it still makes me a little nervous! However, the museum below is also very interesting and tells the story of St. Louis' development. 4. Cathedral Basilica of Saint Louis Although I thought it was just an ordinary small town church, I was shocked by its golden splendor when I walked in. It's definitely worth a special visit! 5. Saint Louis Science Center This is more suitable for families with children. The science content is rich and children should love it. 6. City Museum One of the few paid museums, very suitable for families with children. Online reviews call it "the most unconventional museum". There are many strange and wonderful exhibits, and it's easy to get lost. The ten-story slide is particularly impressive! 7. Union Station The station is like a miniature semi-open-air amusement park. I heard that the building itself is also very beautiful and worth a visit. Places I regret not visiting: 1. Inside the Economy Museum at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis* I heard that there are some very special souvenirs available, so I'll definitely check it out next time. 2. Missouri Botanical Garden A very famous botanical garden, unfortunately I didn't have time to visit it this time. Food: Honestly, the food experience in St. Louis is average. However, among the restaurants I ate at randomly, there is a South American restaurant called Cinder House (located in the Four Seasons Hotel) that is very good, and the wine is also great. Remember to book in advance! ⚠ Restaurant to avoid: Ruth's Chris Steak House, not recommended, their steaks and lobsters are not very good. Transportation: If you can't get there by light rail or bus, you can take a taxi. You may encounter some strange people on public transportation, similar to the New York subway.
