Missouri Vacations

Overview

Missouri is located in the Midwestern United States. When the French settled the area, it was inhabited by the Native Americans and would later be sold to the United States as part of the Louisiana Purchase. It became a territory in 1812 and was admitted to the Union in 1821, making it the 24th state. Missouri is now a chief producer of transportation equipment and its fastest-growing industry is food processing. Missouri is also a major supplier of lead due to its extensive mines.

Activities & Attractions

One of the most famous cities in Missouri is Branson. Located in the Ozark Mountains, Branson has established itself as a heaven for country music lovers. St. Louis has the world famous Arch, which attracts many visitors every year, but there is something in every part of Missouri worth seeing. There are natural caves filled with ore and geological wonders, beautiful wildlife and, of course, the mountains. There is also no shortage of amusement parks, shopping districts and theaters in Missouri. Here are just a few of the interesting snippets of attractions that can be found in Missouri: Edge of Hell Haunted House in Kansas City, Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum, Missouri Botanical Garden, Six Flags Amusement Park, Vineyards, and Amish communities.

Lodging

There are many different lodging options when visiting Missouri. There are hotels and motels as well as some beautiful bed and breakfasts that can be found in some of the most unique homes and structures imaginable. Hospitality is big in this part of the country so expect to be treated well no matter where you stay!

Transportation

Buses are the main mode of public transportation in Missouri. Some of them are equipped to handle elderly and disabled patrons and these shuttle buses are a great way to go if you are a wine lover. Missouri currently has no subway or light rail system but there is taxi service in the major cities and privately organized taxi service in some of the smaller communities. You can also rent a car very easily to enjoy the state on your own schedule.
