Things To Do
BBQ, BBQ, and more BBQ!
Kansas City has no shortage of amazing restaurants, but everyone knows our barbecue is a must eat! Some of our favorites are Joe's Kansas City, Q39, and Char Bar, though you really can't go wrong with any that have delicious burnt ends!
Union Station and Crown Center
Union Station is one of the icons of Kansas City. Even if you're not catching a train, it's art deco architecture and history is amazing to see. Inside you can find shops, restaurants, exhibits, a planetarium, the biggest movie theater screen in the city, and Science City! While you're there, you can walk on the Link above the street over to Crown Center, which is also full of fun shops to explore, as well as the Sea Life Aquarium and Legoland. You can also catch the street car here and visit anywhere from the City Market to The Plaza!
National WWI Museum and Memorial
The National WWI Museum and Memorial is located right across the street from Union Station. Featuring permanent and changing exhibits, this is the perfect spot if you're in the mood to learn some history. Sitting above the museum is the Liberty Memorial Tower, and that spot features one of the best lookout views of Kansas City you can find!
Country Club Plaza
The Country Club Plaza is one of most well-known areas of Kansas City. Established in 1922, the design was inspired by the grand plazas of Spain, and is a beautiful area to visit! Featuring a variety of shops and restaurants, it's a favorite place of locals and tourists alike.
