In this adventure I head to St. Louis, Missouri in the United States Of America to visit the Gateway Arch. During vlog I check out this magnificent structure along with heading to the top for a fantastic view across the city.
The Gateway Arch was completed in 1965 and stands at 630ft (192m) above St Louis. Along with heading to the top of this impressive structure, I also check out the museum that's located directly underneath. Along with that I share various pieces of information throughout the video including a look at the unique tramway system that takes you to the top!

@elguapo90 5 лет назад

I'm from Orlando, but I lived in STL for two years 2016-2018. It's a very under-rated city. My only complaint is it lacks international influence. There aren't many people visiting or moving there to add energy to the city. STL should market itself to people from more expensive cities, because it truly has some of the most beautiful neighborhoods in the country.

@daver7178 5 лет назад

Increased international influence would be an excellent shot in the arm for StL. However, StL needs to get some of it's affairs in order (city/county issues) before it will ever go beyond just another Midwestern city.

@queenneptune2456 Год назад

I'm from California and have lived in St.Louis for years and I have to agree. This city lacks any influences to invite people to come here. This feels like more of a city people come to live in or visit family than to come here because of landmarks.

You know, as a Missourian I ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS forget that the Arch is a thing people all over the world come to see. I've only been once and I wasn't able to go to the top bc it was SO FULL when we went in the summer of like 2007-2008. Of course, I spent a good amount of time in the museum portion. I only live three hours away, idk why I haven't gone back since LMAO I'm an adult now XD Everytime I go to STL I go to the Zoo, which is the best FREE ZOO IN THE US!! it's an amazing place and it only costs to park and everything you spend money on, goes towards the zoo and the animals.

I live not too far from the Gateway Arch, just the other side of the Mississippi River, I remember my first time going there and taking the tram to the top, a storm was coming in that day and to see the storm rolling in and to feel the sway at the top of the Arch was unbelieveable. Then my cousins and I stood against the Arch in the rain because when it rains, the side of the Arch becomes a waterfall from the water on top running down.

The Windows are purportedly small in order to maximize the amount of steel in this 'keystone' part of the Arch. The two legs push together with something like 400 tons of pressure, so having big areas of glass here instead of steel would not work out too well.

They must keep that ballpark in such great shape that it looks brand new. That is awesome that you also like National Lampoon's Vacation. I like all the Vacation movies except for the Vegas one.
