St Louis series - The Arch

No visit to St Louis will be complete without a visit to the city's most famous landmark - the Arch that stands at 630 ft high.


A tram takes visitors to the top of the arch at a cost of $12, and these trips are sold out very quickly at the weekend.  The view of St Louis from the top is impressive, and on a windy day, you can feel the slight sway of the arch.  The photos here look grey and grainy, which are a good reflection of the weather on the day.
