Make the Most of Your Kansas City Stay

A legacy of design and culture

Kansas City's identity was shaped by George Kessler's visionary park and boulevard system, part of the City Beautiful Movement that created an interconnected urban landscape. The city's collection of over 200 fountains—more than any city except Rome—earned it the nickname "City of Fountains," while an Art Deco building boom in the 1920s left landmarks like the Power & Light Building and Municipal Auditorium. The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art houses over 40,000 works, and the National WWI Museum and Memorial's tower offers sweeping skyline views.

Jazz heritage and modern dining

The 18th & Vine Jazz District preserves the city's musical legacy, where clubs like the Green Lady Lounge and The Blue Room keep the tradition alive. Kansas City's reputation as the Barbecue Capital of the World is well-earned, but the culinary scene extends far beyond smoke pits. The Town Company showcases open-hearth cooking from James Beard semifinalist chefs, while Corvino Supper Club pairs live music with refined cuisine. The Crossroads Arts District transforms former warehouses into galleries and chef-driven restaurants, and the Country Club Plaza's Spanish-inspired architecture frames upscale steakhouses and boutique shopping.

Navigating the city

The free KC Streetcar connects River Market to Union Station through downtown's core, reaching the Power & Light District and Convention Center. Kansas City International Airport sits 20 miles northwest with a 25-minute drive to downtown. Business travelers often prefer private car services for reliability, while the streetcar handles meetings within the urban center efficiently.
