    • Shawnee Indian Mission is used as an educational center and museum. The mission originally was a school for Native American Indian children. Today local children from nearby schools come by bus to spend three days learning many of the same skills those indian children once learned. It is a way for them to see what it was like in the days gone by.
    Well preserved buildings. Many antique items on display. If you are quiet and respectful they will let you watch the young girls and boys in their classes.

    • National Agriculture Hall of Fame in Bonner Springs always reminds me of my grandfather when I go there. He was a farmer all his life. There are lots of interesting displays and an out large out door historical area to walk through.

    • Johnson County Museum of History at 6305 Lackman Road is a nice museum. It is one of only dozens of museums in Kansas City. You could spend a week trying to visit all the museums there. You should at least try to see a few of the museums in the area.

    • Kansas City Renaissance Festival is some thing you must go to. It begins in September on Labor Day and runs through mid October. I've been there three times and will be going again next year. Adding photos of it to a travelogue so you can see how fun it is.
    Hundreds of people in period costume, great food, live entertainment, and crafts for sale. My favorite part is a rehab center for injured raptors that has a show with live hawks swooping over the crowd. The performers expect a donation at the end of each show but you don't have to give them any thing. I always give them a dollar or two if I like the show.

     Hey brdwtcher.... If you are a "Kansas Citian" and you don't know where this fountain is, I would say you aren't exactly a Kansas Citian. It is on the Country Club Plaza. For those reading this, GO TO MIDTOWN and not to these awful CHAIN restaurants!    		DPando Wed May 17, 2006 14:40 UTC

     This visitor info center has closed.    		trila Wed Oct 6, 2004 02:19 UTC
     They have bulldozed the Welcom Center in Olathe, and are now building a "Hooters" in it's place. You still may be able to get tourist info there once it opens though.
