Children's Mercy Park

Reviewed By mattmX4628UL

The two previous games we attended were live action in person, and Sporting won both times. This time was a little different, but still enjoyable. As an affiliate of the MLS team, we were in town for an All-Star weekend and allowed to watch the team's season opener (which was actually in NY) in the stadium on the big screen. The drum team was not present (which would normally create a lot of enthusiasm in the fans) but it was still a fun time. It was actually kind of nice not having the big crowd this time. Kansas City is now 3-0 in the three games we have attended.

Went here with the whole family and while the wife did the shopping the kids and I checked out everything else. This a great place to just walk around and look at the animals. I have never seen so many great displays in one spot besides in a museum. We even found some great clothing for our outdoor needs.

Strawberry Hill Museum & Cultural Center

Reviewed By MllePoupee - Indianapolis, United States

I am from Kansas City and had never been to Strawberry Hill! I’m home for Christmas and so my mom and I decided to go visit the museum and check out the tea room as we’ve heard folks say visiting at Christmas is a must. It was beautiful! The Christmas decorations are stunning and tend to compliment or amplify the beauty of the home. Seeing the various rooms related to the different ethnic/cultural groups of Strawberry Hill and learning about the orphanage history was also fascinating. Tasting teas and treats in the tea room made for a lovely end to the visit. We were very glad we went and will definitely recommend it to fellow Kansas Citians!

Lewis & Clark Historic Park at Kaw Point

Reviewed By Toyota1994 - Chicago, United States

The Lewis & Clark Historic park at Kaw Point is well designed and has some nice amenities. The paved walking trail down by the river is in shade and leads to a nice sculpture of Lewis & Clark at the tip of Kaw Point (confluence of Kansas River and Missouri River). On the ridge where the parking lot is, there is a beautiful memorial for all the vanquished native Indian tribes. Quite a lot of historical information is displayed at this memorial. There is nice outdoor amphitheater with seats made of rocks and cement blocks. This could be a nice place for picnics or presentations. The park has access to the Riverfront Heritage bike trail from the parking lot with a ramp over the highway. So one could visit this park while riding bike on the Riverfront trail. In summary, this park is worth spending a few hours.
