Kansas
In Kansas you can find dinosaur bones, moon rocks, great works of art, and the perfect fishing locations. Bison can be seen grazing on open prairie that still bears the deeply cut grooves of pioneer wagon wheels. Experience the great outdoors in its natural state and explore the legacy of the western frontier. View some of the most unspoiled and diverse ecosystems in the country, where hunting and fishing is a great pastime. Find regional creativity displayed alongside internationally acclaimed exhibits in Kansas' art centers and museums.
See life in 1876 Dodge City as interpreted through exhibits and visual programs. A reconstruction of Dodge City in 1876 and old west restorations consists of historic and reconstructed buildings. Historic buildings include an 1879 cattleman's home, the jail from Fort Dodge, a one-room school, and a church. The recently renovated exhibits, interpretive programs, and theatrical performances provide a glimpse into the town's early history when it was a buffalo hunters' trade center and, later, a cattle town.
There is no shortage of other top attractions in the state, including the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center in Hutchinson, and the unique Rolling Hills Zoo in Salina which is fast becoming a top zoological park with its impressive collection of rare and endangered animals. For heart pounding action the new Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Heartland Park in Topeka, or the Dodge City Raceway Park offer racing excitement for even the casual race fan.
Everyone can be a kid again in Kansas. Wichita’s Exploration Place offers a hands-on approach to science and discovery. You can see rare fossils at the Sternberg Museum of Natural History in Hays, including the famed “fish within a fish” fossil, and the Fick Fossil History Museum in Oakley. Or spend a day at one of the state’s top zoos for a family fun adventure.
There are numerous places to reflect on the historic past. The Kansas Museum of History in Topeka preserves much of the state’s history and showcases it for all to enjoy. You can reflect on Kansas’ role as the gatekeeper to the American West at a number of frontier military forts that offer living history programs. Two of these forts have the distinction of being National Historic Sites – Fort Scott and Fort Larned. The Eisenhower Center in Abilene honors our favorite son, President Dwight D. Eisenhower, and is one of the nation’s top presidential libraries, while Atchison honors its famous aviator Amelia Earhart, with tours of her childhood home and the Stan Herd earthwork designed in her likeness.
Walk through the prairie in Kansas and you will experience one of the four remaining untouched tallgrass prairies left in the world. The Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve in Strong City and the Konza Prairie Natural Area near Manhattan are just a few of the places to experience the beauty of the prairie. Experience the beauty of the American bison at two game refuges, Maxwell Wildlife Refuge in Canton and the Finney Game Refuge in Garden City. Wildlife is also abundant in the Wetlands with migratory birds to be observed at Cheyenne Bottoms and Quivira National Wildlife Refuge in Great Bend.
