Faust Park Butterfly House Review

faust-park-butterfly-house-review-photoThis is a review of the Faust Park Butterfly House.

St. Louis has many great places to spend time during the weekend and the Butterfly House should rank towards the top. Operated by the Missouri Botanical Garden, the Butterfly House offers a chance to see many species of butterflies and other insects up close.
