Life In Saint Louis

Living in the Gateway City

Known as the Gateway City, St. Louis is rich in American history. This is most symbolized by the giant stainless steel Gateway Arch, standing 192 meters high on the banks of the Mississippi River.

St. Louis claims a number of other significant cultural gems like Forest Park, which is larger than New York City’s Central Park and contains the city’s free zoo, art museum, science center and history museum. The City Museum is another must-see cultural landmark, combining art and fun through recycled architecture.
