Visit Saint Paul doesn’t have a lot of visitors from outside the capital city these days, but they have things to do and lovely looks at St. Paul for those of us who are here. “Saint Paul from Home” is a microsite (visitsaintpaul.com/saintpaulfromhome) recently launched on the VSP website.
Saint Paul from Home has a virtual tour of the governor’s residence, the Hmong Cultural Center’s online exhibit, the Department of Natural Resources’ Eagle Cam. There’s a look at St. Paul through Google 360 with views of Como Zoo, CHS Field, Historic Fort Snelling, the Mississippi River and more.
There’s a collection of stay-at-home activities in the “STP Activity Pack” on the microsite; and a list of restaurants and breweries that have curbsite pickup, takeout and delivery. A “Listen and Watch” section has music, podcasts, info on movies that have been filmed in St. Paul and a full-length performance by the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra.
And an outdoors section has trails, parks and sidewalk poetry to check out — while following social distancing, of course.
