The Scene – Part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial, the Gateway Arch marks the entrance to the American West. The Old Courthouse and the Museum of Westward Expansion are also on the grounds, and together they make a great day of St. Louis sightseeing. – – The Experience – Consider standing in the usually long line for a tram ride to the top of the 630-foot arch, where you can spend up to an hour with the view. This seven-minute ride at the nation's tallest monument is fairly slow and not at all scary, so don't be afraid to give it a go. If you do suffer…

Arch where is the money going?
by skahnstl at Citysearch
The Arch is a good educational and historical place to visit. Make sure you bring extra cash with you if you want to visit the movie, the museum and/or ride up to the top!
- Pros: educational, historical
- Cons: expensive, long way from parking, crowded

The Arch is a great place for visitors or locals to re-visit. I have been several times. The view is great. Not meant for the closterphobic person. The ride to the top is a little scary, but well worth the wait. Here in St. Louis we have these commercials with Becky and Wanda flying around on a magic carpet by the Arch. Someday I hope the carpet runs out of magic.
- Pros: view, view, view
- Cons: elevators, dont serve beer
