      Interesting!! That’s a nice request. i have more footage of the museum - which is quite nice. - i need to think of a better title to grab more views to make it worthwhile. i’ve made about 15 cents an hour on that one and travel expenses not covered.

    The St. Louis Art Museum has a great Cahokia exhibit. My sister is a curator so I have to put in a good word, 😀. The visitor center is currently undergoing a big renovation and I'm looking forward to seeing it next time I visit.
    I'm glad I found your channel, great videos!

    I’m in Illinois and this has been on my list for quite some time. This could be the year! Thanks for reminding me.

      You should! Go to their web site because I think they are doing construction this year. So their hours are limited.

      Thanks- I wish there was more interest in this place- so far that video made about $2- can't justify another trip.

    In its heyday (the late 12th Century) Angkor covered 1,000 epic square kilometres. It's hard to comprehend that this medieval city was so far ahead of the rest of the world and that it would be another 700 years before London reached a similar size
