Our city is in the heart of the United States and right at the point where the Big and Little Arkansas Rivers join. The arts have always prospered here with a dozen museums scattered throughout the city, each with a distinctive or historic cast, and art has even taken to the streets! We are considered the economic hub of the region and home to corporate headquarters for leading producers of aircraft, aviation components and all-American consumer products. Our hometown is full of fun things to do and see, including an outdoor concert venue in the heart of downtown, multiple locally owned breweries, a children’s theatre, and Riverfront Stadium, home to the Double-A affiliate minor league baseball team of the Minnesota Twins. Our city boasts more than 136 municipal parks and playgrounds covering nearly 3,000 acres in the city and county, plus a bike system of more than 100 miles along city streets, the riverbanks, and rails to trails. Shopping opportunities include one of the state's largest shopping malls, new outdoor plazas, antique shops, and a host of specialty stores. First-rate restaurants in every sector of the city offer an abundant choice of cuisine, ranging from Asian, Mexican, French, and Continental to various American fares. Known for our entrepreneur spirit, you can find it all in Wichita.
