Located in the Great Plains region of Midwestern United States of America you will find the state of Kansas. Geographically, it is largely described as the center of the country and is therefore on the way to almost anywhere across the States. Accommodation can be found catering for overnight travelers, business visitors and vacationers. Due to the Wizard of Oz, many people outside the state often regard it as a boring. The truth is, however, quite different. It is a delightful destination, full of historical significance where every little town deserves exploring and has something to offer.
It is bordered by Nebraska in the north; Missouri in the east separated by the Missouri River, Oklahoma in the south and Colorado on the west. Geographically, there is a big difference between the two sides of the state. The East is dominated by most of the large cities, is hilly and has more trees and vegetation. Down the center are some of the lasts surviving grasslands of the Great Plains. Western Kansas is more rural and sparsely inhabited with a lot of open farmland which forms the basis of the economy. Kansas is often the leading producer of wheat, sorghum and sunflowers.
Historically, this was the home of a large number of nomadic Native Americans for whom bison hunting was the mainstay of their survival. Europeans arrived in the 1830s and the area became a hotbed of violence and turbulence with pro-slavery settlers and abolitionists colliding head to head. After the Civil War, waves of immigration turned the prairie into productive farmland.
A visitor looking at the Hotels Kansas has to offer need to be prepared as the climate can differ considerably across the state. The eastern part of the state has a humid continental climate characterized by cold winters and hot summers. The western area has a semi-arid steppe climate with very hot summers and although the Chinook winds warm can warm the winters, they still tend to be cold. Heavy snows fall in the northwest. The south has a subtropical climate with much more rain than the rest of the state. Heavy thunderstorms are common and the state has the highest number of severe tornadoes, reporting over 50 a year.
The capital city is Topeka and is the site of the Kansas State Historical Museum. Wichita is the largest city and is termed the 'Air Capital of the World, due to the large number of aerospace firms that are located here. Other important cities attracting both leisure and business guests wanting to stay at one of the many hotels here include Kansas City, Dodge City, Lawrence, Manhattan and Liberal complete with Dorothy's recreated home.
