St. Louis Destinations

My list of St. Louis tourist attractions (or places that deserve to be attractions), in case you're thinking of visiting St. Louis at some point in the future. I'm leaving out the major pro teams (Cards, Blues, Rams) because they're pretty obvious, at least to U.S. residents.

Big Tourist Attractions

Forest Park, which contains the St. Louis Zoo (Free admission), the Art Museum, the History Museum, the Jewel Box (flowers and stuff), the Muny (theatre), and a lot of trees. They also claim the Science Center as part of the Park but that's iffy I think.
The Missouri Botanical Garden
The Gateway Arch, which includes a nice museum underneath. The Old Courthouse, home to the Dred Scott case and some big ceiling murals, is nearby.

Activities

The Magic House!
A large new mall out in the suburbs. Plenty of parking.
Busch offers a tour of their facility. Quite nice I'm sure... *hic*
Mmm, Ted Drewes...
The Pasta House. Mmm, toasted ravioli...

Miscellaneous

The International Bowling Hall of Fame. It's more interesting than it sounds. Also the Cardinals HoF is in the same building I think.
Union Station. It's of interest more for its history as a train station than for its shopping. Don't let that stop you though.
