Neptune,
god of the seas, raises his trident
and roars through turbulent waters
led by three powerful seahorses. A
block away Bacchus, god of wine, looks
down from his grapevine-wrapped pedestal
upon a captive audience of nymphs
and satyrs. Nearby, the beautiful
goddes Pomona poses with a cluster
of grapes in a sundrenched courtyard.

No,
this is not Mount Olympus, fabled
home of the greek gods. It's Kansas
City. And these are but a few of
the hundreds of majestic fountains
that make their home in this Midwestern
city, know as the City of Fountains.
Kansas City welcomes visitors with
water spectaculars located throughout
the metropolitan area. What
started as simple drinking troughs
for animals in the late 1800s, has
erupted into magnificent symphonies
of water, light and sculpture. From
big to small, powerful to whimsical,
each fountain has a carachter all
its own, adding to the beauty of
the Kansas City area. Greater Kansas

Kansas City, Missouri, stands Kansas
City, Kansas, rich with Native American
and ethnic immigrant history, as
well as the site of the Kansas Speedway,
inaugurated in 2001. Mix in 20-plus
communities within an hour's drive,

the lifeblood of America. Shop to

Plaza. Browse
