In my opinion, the best time to visit Kansas City is the fall. There is still plenty of sunshine and blue skies. Temperatures are usually pretty friendly but who cares with all the beautiful scenery?
The Kansas City Sculpture Park makes the perfect fall outing. The trees are gorgeous with their leaves turning all shades of red, yellow and brown. If you're really into nature, you'll enjoy reading the new horticulture signs throughout the Park.
Of course, the 34 sculptures are the stars of the Park. They include works by Claes Oldenburg, Henry Moore and Tony Cragg.
