From the charm of a
small town winery to the excitement of big city shopping, Platte County offers
visitors a long list of attractions to entertain and entice all ages and
tastes. Our communities
proudly feature an array of one-of-a-kind restaurants, historic sites, high
fashion shops, museums, live theatre…the list goes on. For Platte County
residents, every weekend presents a vacation’s worth of fun—and what a pleasure
it is for those residents to entertain out of town family and business guests
with so many attractions to choose from.
Here’s just a
sampling:
Zona Rosa has quickly become a Platte County and Kansas City destination shopping
center. This mixed-use lifestyle center
has shopping, dining, entertainment and living down to an art. Annual events such as summer concerts in Town
Square, visits by the Fairy Princess, Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny during
the holiday seasons bring visitors young and old to the center.
Parkville, home to unique art shops, antique stores, and several locally owned
restaurants, also features a river walk and a riverfront park that hosts a
weekend jazz festival every summer.
