Wichita, a city of plains and planes, has the distinction of being in the geographical center of the US. In the heart of the Central Great Plains, Wichita boasts scenic vistas and enjoys up to 225 days of sunshine per year, making this one of the ten sunniest cities in the country. Local airplane manufacturers, including Boeing and Bombardier Aerospace/Learjet Corp., lead the city’s vibrant economy. The central location enables visitors to fly to any continental US city in less than five hours – but why leave when the city has so much to offer? Enjoy award-winning restaurants and a nationally acclaimed zoo. Learn about the city’s history at Old Cowtown, which tells of a time before planes and automobiles, when dance halls, outlaws and saloons ruled the plains instead. Indeed, legend has it that Wyatt Erp served as lawman during the cattle-trade days in the Wichita area. More on the Wichita Hotel Rooms...
