🔝Have you been to the top of the @gatewayarchstl before? It's a trip how you get up there. You're transported 630 feet to the top via a tram that looks like something out of a Sci-fi movie! It's kind of creepy. lol Take a look in the album to see. Would you ride in one of those to get to the top? They fit up to 5 people in them (it's a tight squeeze and we only had 3 people in ours!) Also, watch your head as you enter your little pod, as the door to get in is only 4 feet high! So be sure to duck! Once you make it to the top though, WOW! The views are breathtaking. 🏞 Shaped by the inspired design of Finnish-America architect Eero Saarinen, the Gateway Arch celebrates the westward expansion of the United States and the pioneers who made it possible. Since its completion in 1965, the monument has taken millions of visitors on the trip to the top to enjoy stunning views stretching up to 30 miles to the east and west. 🏙 Each tram tour has an anticipated duration of 45-60 minutes. For the best experience, purchase your Tram Ride to the Top tickets before you visit.  🏞 Also, make sure to take all the photos you want of the Arch outside BEFORE you go inside! I made the mistake of thinking, oh I'll get more pictures afterwards. 😂🤣😂🤣 NOPE. This isn't California... the weather can change QUICK. 😂 The skies changed from blue to dark gray and people were running for the hills to their hotels/cars once we got back outside. 🌧🌩🌧 Luckily we made it back to our car before it started to dump down rain on us. 🌧🌧☔️🌧🌧 🏞 💫 🏞 💫 🏞 💫 🏞 #gatewayarch #gatewayarchnationalpark #SeeDifferently #explorestlouis #StLouis #Explorestl #nationalmonument #stl #stlouisgram #saintlouis #stlouismo #stlouismissouri #stlmo #stlmade #downtownstl #stlgram #stlphotographer #stlouisblues #stlouisonly #stlouisarch #stlouispark #wanderlust #travelgram #nationalpark #nationalparks #stlweather #stllove #stlgrams #travelusa #travelphoto
