Kansas City

Kansas City bustles day and night. As you potter around its vibrant streets, you’ll be amazed at just how many cascading fountains you’ll stumble across – the city’s on par with Rome for its abundance of water features. Don’t miss attractions like the sprawling, Spanish-themed Country Club Plaza shopping district and the inspiring Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art.

As night falls in Kansas City, the sounds of piano keys being tinkered with and saxophones being blown drift out of jazz bars, while the smell of grilled meat fills the air from the 100-plus barbeque joints dotted all over the city.
