Forest Park

Home to the great musical legend Tina Turner, the city of St. Louis might not tally with your definition of a laid back tourist destination but this is one of those places in America where you can head down to a local bar, grab a pint of ice cold beer and just watch the baseball game while enjoying the great company. St Louis has a welcoming city that doesn’t really care much about where you’re from as long as you have a passion for music and know how to have a good time.

Known as one of the largest urban parks in the United States, the Forest Park covers a total area of 1293 acres and is one the 105 city parks of America. This massive tourist attraction is what draws most of the visitors that travel to this city. Within the limits of the Forest Park are many other attractions such as the Art Museum, the Zoo, the Science Centre and the History Museum. The Zoo is an ideal place where families can enjoy the presence of friendly members of the animal kingdom. The two museums are complete with an array of artifacts that are historically important for both the city and the country at the same time.

The greenery that dominates the landscape of this park is the perfect environment for those of us who enjoy a peaceful few hours of serenity. This unique park also doubles up as a sporting location where golfers, ice skaters and even basketball players can come to enjoy an adrenaline pumping session of practice. Concerned about your fitness? You can even go for a jog or a bicycle ride through the park while enjoying the lush forestry that will keep you company.
