1) The Plaza--tons of fun, shopping and great food. Be sure to go to the Cheese Cake Factory
2) Zona Rosa--right by the airport. It's what the future of strip malls should be.
3) Union Station--it's a classic monument!
4) A Royals game--for $8/ticket you'll be able to say you say the worst time in MLB history!
5) Jackstack BBQ--Metcalf and 95th Street--best BBQ ever. I've tasted BBQ in Alaska, Texas, and Kansas. Kansas won out.
6) Oklahoma Joes--it's in a gas station but has national-wide great food!
7) Westport--be sure to go to Murray's ice cream parlor (they close on Mondays). Very fun area.
8) Kansas City Zoo, if it's not too warm--it's a zoo. It's fun. The end.
9) Lawrence--Always nice to say you visited KU!
10) Go to the city market--the Steamship Arabia is a fun/boring place to see.
11) Parkville, Missouri--go to the PowerHouse restaruant for great food
12) If you like gambling, try the Argosy casino
13) You can always take a ferry ride down the Missouri river
14) I've heard that Independence is a fun place to visit, but I've never been there
15) JAZZ restaurant across from the KU med center. Very good Cajun food.
16) Great Wolf Lodge
17) Worlds of Fun/Oceans of Fun
18) Renessiance Festival
19) If you like movies, I believe every Friday night in front of Crown Center is a free outdoor movie. Tons of fun. Other than this, Crown Center is rather dull in the summer.
Good luck!! (I like in the KC-metro!)

Well I live here & honestly there isn't a whole lot to do, we do have major furniture store - Nebraska Furniture Mart, which is right next to Cabelas & The Great Wolf Lodge- great for kids. Legends is pretty cool - heard that dave & busters there is awesome. Steer clear from Zona Rosa Unless you like traffic & teenagers everywhere...the Plaza is pretty cool, so is Union Station. if you like art The Nelson Atkins art museum is pretty cool - the revolving restaurant downtown is really cool - Skies- just be prepared for the bill, best steak I ever have ate was at Piropos (spelling?) however this may be more than Skies but is better it is in parkville

I love to go to "The Plaza" or "Crown Center" when I'm there. The Plaza has shops galore and nice restaurants. Crown Center has an ice rink and other stuff. If you like baseball , the Royals play there. I also went to this revolving restaurant downtown thats cool. Have fun!

Get out to a Royals game. Although they are the worst team right now, the ballpark is incredible, and I have been to many ballparks. One of the nicest stadiums in the majors.

Why would you pick KC for a vacation?
