Saint Louis

St. Louis is a city in the state of Missouri that lines the western bank of the Mississippi River. The city is small compared to many other popular United States tourist destinations, but definitely worth the trip if you are traveling the continental U.S.. If you have never heard of the city, it's likely you've heard of the city's most popular landmark -- the Gateway Arch. Or, you may have heard of one of St. Louis' professional sports teams, the St. Louis Cardinals and the St. Louis Blues.
