Travel Trip St. Louis On A Budget
A couple walks through the Chinese Garden at the Missouri Botanical Garden, Tuesday, March 17, 2009, in St. Louis. Longtime St. Louisans still lovingly refer to this urban oasis as Shaw's Garden, for the British businessman Henry Shaw who recreated the English gardens of his youth in what was then the outskirts of St. Louis. Today, 150 years after its founding, the Missouri Botanical Garden is world class with 79 acres of landscaped outdoor display gardens, indoor conservatories and historic buildings and with an admission price of $8 and free for children 12 and under, it's a destination for travelers on a budget.
