Kansas City may be known for its tasty barbecue and funky jazz, but those are only a couple of the things that make our city an exciting place to live.
Country Club Plaza
From upscale shops like Valentino to more affordable options like Forever 21, the Plaza caters to a wide variety of tastes and preferences. The outdoor shopping center spans 15 blocks and is home to nearly 100 stores, 50 restaurants and 10 hotels.
BBQ
There is a bit of an ongoing rivalry between the top barbecue joints here in Kansas City. Gates, Oklahoma Joe’s and Arthur Bryant’s are among the favorites, so you’ll have to try them all and decide for yourself.
The Arts
The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Arts is a favorite Kansas City attraction, housing more than 33,500 objects— and it’s all for free! Similarly, the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art is an interesting museum that presents special exhibits, educational programming and a permanent art collection. Looking for a theater show or concert? The Kansas City Repertory Theater and Starlight Theater both put on fun productions throughout the year, while the Sprint Center, Kemper Arena and Cricket Wireless Amphitheater are a few of the city’s main concert venues.
