Northwest Missouri trip planner

A farm country for the most part, Northwest Missouri welcomes visitors with a blend of refined city life and folksy country sights. Cradling plenty of topnotch museums, bustling shopping areas, and gourmet dining, Kansas City remains the region's most visited tourist destination--hundreds of gurgling fountains and an electric jazz scene earned it a nickname "the Paris of the Plains." Wineries and breweries of Weston draw pleasure seekers to this town, which once served as a major "jumping-off" point for the California Gold Rush. To get a feel of a typical old Midwestern small town, visit Independence. On your Northwest Missouri tour, you'll never know if an adventure worthy of Jesse James, the famous outlaw and the native of Kearney, waits around the next corner.
