15 Best Things To Do in Kansas City, Missouri

Kansas City is one of the most interesting cities in Missouri, considering it’s popular for its fountains. Yes, there are over 200 fountains in the city, and it’s very hard to not see at least one on your commute to work or a nighttime walk.

Besides, museums, amusement parks, water sports, and barbeque spots fill the city, giving it a charm that’s hard to resist. On a more sober note, the city also houses the National World War 1 Museum, which is possibly the best of its kind in the whole country.

With its glass walkway and red poppy field - in remembrance of the lives lost during the war - the museum is a must-visit site that offers panoramic views of the city from its Liberty Memorial.
