Did you know that St. Charles has a charming visitors center that offers brochures? If you venture down a floor, you'll find loads of information about St. Charles waiting for you. And don't worry, there are bathrooms down there too! #bucketlist

In my opinion, this is the single best place to stop for a restroom on this street, and they even have waterfountains. They sometimes have that area decorated, too. Upstairs, they have guides who are willing to give you whatever information you need. Especially if you are new to Saint Charles or Mainstreet, come in and check it out.

The time I've knew about Christmas Tradition which started after Thanksgiving. I try my best to visit this place. And in fairness last Christmas Eve it was my 6times to witness that event! And to think I arrived here in United States specifically here in Arnold, Missiouri last Jan.26,2017! 🙏🤩🥰♥️ and my husband and I never tired to visit this beautiful place especially during they have an event!🤗🤩😉😊

Before I review my "Hit the Bricks" tour, I want to "highly recommend" a visit to the FOUNDRY ART CENTRE!! Unfortunately, none of the artists were in their studios when we perused the facility!!! This building & it's offerings are an incredible asset to the main street of St. Charles!!! Then we ate a delicious, plentiful lunch on the 3rd floor outside balcony of the LEWIS & CLARK'S RESTAURANT---conveniently located across the street from the visitor's bureau. Our choice of tours was scheduled to start at 12:30pm on a Friday afternoon. For the incredibly reasonable price of $7.00, we chose tour #2---MO THAN MEETS THE EYE: SURPRISES OF THE FIRST STATE CAPITAL. Because of many unforeseen circumstances, I ended up being the "only participant" in the tour!!! I was blessed with, Diane---a charmingly upbeat, accommodating, knowledgeable, eloquent tour guide that obviously LOVES WHAT SHE IS DOING!!! She was "miked", so anyone could hear her speak above all the "surrounding intrusive noises"!! You carried a "slide projector" for the viewing of "historically past pictures", multiple sitting stops were included, questions were answered along the way, & St. Charles past history was revealed---in all it's glory!!! Facades & buildings that have gone through multiple phases that are still recognizable & used today. At the end of the 1 1/2 hour tour, you will be given several old postcards exhibiting events that you learned about during the tour. We even got to witness "local law inforcement" decked out in their uniforms----on HORSEBACK!!! We only stayed in the delightful St. Charles area for 1 1/2 days, but the "welcoming" visitor's bureau & this tour was the ICING ON THE CAKE!!! MANY THANKS to the visitor's bureau & Diane for an overall splendid experience!!!
