20 Reasons We Love Missouri

Urban excitement and lakeside lounging are equally enticing in this diverse state where two mighty rivers converge.

St. Louis' Forest Park

Larger than New York's Central Park and chock-full of activities, this sprawling 1,293 acres is full of free and inexpensive attractions. Tour the park by foot, bicycle, paddleboat or even Segway. Spend a day -- or more -- at the park's Missouri History Museum, Saint Louis Art Museum, Saint Louis Science Center, and Saint Louis Zoo (the zoo's Penguin and Puffin Coast is pictured at left). For general information on Forest Park as well as links to its attractions, visit the Forest Park website. (314) 289-5300; stlouis.missouri.org/citygov/parks/forestpark/
