Kansas City complements its heartland appeal with the dazzling fountains of Rome, bold architecture of Spain and the wide boulevards of Paris.

From lake fun to historic river towns, there is plenty to keep you busy in Missouri's Central Region. The Lake of the Ozarks offers 1,150 miles of shoreline winding through scenic Ozark hills.

Malls, factory outlets and specialty stores make this area a year-round destination for shoppers.
