Oklahoma’s state capital, Oklahoma City is a brilliant destination for a busy weekend break, with stacks of historic and cultural attractions. Originally inhabited by Native Americans, this former Great Plains frontier city boomed as an industrial hub. It is now teeming with museums and eateries, offering plenty for couples, friends or families to enjoy. Accommodation options range from small boutique properties to luxurious city hotels, fit for a whole array of tastes and budgets. Many of the best places to stay in Oklahoma City are within easy reach of key attractions, making it easy to explore on foot.
Highlights for museum-goers include the Oklahoma History Centre, the Oklahoma City Memorial Museum, and the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. The Oklahoma Contemporary Art Centre, Factory Obscura and Tower Theatre will also appeal to creative-minded visitors. To get to grips with the state’s legendary cowboy culture, try the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. The Museum of Osteology, on the other hand, is the only skeleton museum in the USA. If you’re visiting with kids, head to the City Zoo or the Frontier City Amusement Park for adrenaline-pumping rollercoasters.
The 17-acre Myriad Botanical Gardens offer a beautiful setting for a stroll, whilst Scissortail Park promises entertainment for travellers of all ages. Will Rogers Gardens spans 30 acres, and is also lovely.
