The Mark Twain Boyhood Home Museum Gallery
Here's the cherished location, we were delighted, and I hope you'll find out. Explore Twain's biography and work by learning how a boy from a small river town became America's most beloved writer and humorist.
Six historic sites and museums: Mark Twain's Children's House, a national historic landmark recently opened by Becky Thatcher's House, Huckleberry Finn's House, J.M. Clemens' Office, the Peace Justice Department, the Museum Gallery and the Interpretation Center.
All of these seats are included in the price of one ticket, which is definitely a plus. Also in the summer months, there are readings of Mark Twain's stories.

Rockcliffe Mansion
Rockcliff's magnificent mansion has made a lasting impression on us. It was built between 1898 and 1900 by lumber baron John J. Cruickshank, Jr. for his second wife and four daughters. This is a grand residence of 13,500 square meters. The family lived in Rockcliff until Mr. Cruickshank died in 1924. Then the mansion was closed and left for the next 43 years.
Most of the original Victorian and Art Nouveau antique furniture, gas and electric lamps, high-quality sanitary ware and personal belongings of the family have been preserved and exhibited.

Forest Park
This place is a bit like the Central Park in New York, by the way, it was the site of the 1904 World's Fair, and at that time it was the second-largest urban park in America, and today it is the main resting place of St. Louis. Shady and spacious, the park is ideal for walks at the end of the day.

The Gateway Arch
From breathtaking views to amazing stories, it's all about visiting the Gate of the West. It's an experience that will never stop inspiring. The building was built according to the inspired design of the Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen.
Gateway Arch was established in honor of the development of new western territories and heroic pioneers, thanks to which it became possible.

Sanctuaria
Those who have been to Spain know that tapas are a source of pride and an integral part of local culture for local restaurants. And I can honestly say that in Sanctuaria we were able to preserve the Spanish atmosphere and culinary traditions, mixing them with Latin American cuisine.
Don't take a long look at the menu and choose, just try all kinds of tapas here, and you won't be disappointed. The restaurant is closed on Mondays and closes earlier on Sundays at twenty-one o'clock.
