A must see if visiting Kansas City! The city of fountains and so many of them to see. Great shops and fun experiences over all. I definitely recommend coming here during the holiday season for horse drawn carriage rides and free entertainment with amazing Christmas lights outside on every store!
This is a super fun place to walk around and shop! Many of our favorite stores like Anthropologie , Free People, Paper Source, etc. They have an enormous, gorgeous Barnes & Noble, which is hard to find these days. The Spanish tiling is such a lovely touch!
The scenery and architecture were beautiful, but it would have been helpful if they had a map available to locate stores and other points of interest. Nevertheless, it was a pleasant walk.
The city is beautiful and the architecture is amazing. They seem to have added just the right mix of elements to make Themis a special destination
Most restaurants were booked extremely late, but it is very aesthetically pleasing there. Also saw Spiderman.
I actually grew up in Kansas City but have not lived there for many years. As a teen and in my early 20's, I spent time on The Plaza, mostly just hanging out.
It is a beautiful place year round but especially in the summer and at Christmas time. It is a shopping area, not in the downtown area, like today's outdoor mall areas. It opened in 1923 so there are many older, historic buildings but is very beautiful. There is lots of shopping and dining experiences to be had. At one time, there was a movie theater but apparently the last movie theater closed in 2019.
On a summer evening, it is nice to stroll around after dining at one of the many restaurants. Shopping is also one of the 'afternoon sports' of The Plaza. One very nice thing in this day and age, there is plenty of free parking, that way you can spend your money on shopping and the restaurants. It can be a nice place to take someone special.
Christmas time is a big deal because of the Christmas lights. There is a lighting ceremony on Thanksgiving evening that tends to draw crowds. This has been going on for over 90 years though this year was my first time going to the actual lighting ceremony. I decided to rent some hotel rooms and invite my family to Thanksgiving dinner on The Plaza, followed by a stroll to the lighting ceremony. Even if one does not go to the lighting ceremony, it is worth it to go down to see the lights some time between Thanksgiving night and the first week of January.
There are several hotels on and around The Plaza area also. It is definitely one of those places that I recommend seeing if you are ever in the Kansas City area for a few days.
Went for a friend's weekend, what a great area. Thankfully the Christmas lights were still on, makes for a beautiful added touch on cool architecture. Nice variety of upscale restaurants and name brand shops, with a mix of local spots to keep it authentic. Quite a few hotels within walking range, our view was pretty great even from 2 blocks away.
had so much fun exploring, shopping, & grabbing drinks here ????️????
