i’ve been here more than once. a couple of times for some concerts and most recently for a psych convention. i’ve never really had a great time here, and we even bar crawled a bit the last time we were there.

it always seems a bit shady. yet, i will say, i’ve never explored it extensively.

I was born in KCK! It is growing and becoming alive with more attractions. See a T-Bones minor league baseball game or watch some racing on the KS Speedway!

Why I recommend this place to visitors

Kansas City is a hidden treasure. Most locals know what a great city it is to live in, for its art, culture, music, architecture, shopping, lifestyle and of course barbecue. The city is also known as the city of fountains and statues due to their abundance, especially in the country club area of town. I lived in Kansas City for over a year and really loved it. I lived in Merriam and worked in Lenexa, then Olathe, then Kansas City, KS, and finally Kansas City, Missouri, and all were accessable within 35 minutes of driving. I loved the parks, bike trails and water features that are everywhere in the city.

Introduction to Kansas City by FROMMER'S November 20, 2006 Established as a trading post in 1821, Kansas City served as the starting point for wagon trains heading over the Santa Fe, California, and Oregon trails and later emerged as the nation's center for cattle stockyards and slaughterhouses. Today, greater Kansas City is a sprawling metropolis of 1.8 million straddling the Kansas-Missouri state line. Yet it retains something of a small-town atmosphere, with tree-lined boulevards and a large number of parks spread over gently rolling hills. Need further incentive to visit? Kansas City is famous for its steaks, barbecue, jazz, rich frontier history, and unique attractions. (read article)
