Kansas City Plaza

            The Kansas City Plaza is not too far from downtown Kansas City. Some would say it is the nicest part of Kansas City. It has some amazing architecture and the home of some of the fountains in which Kansas City is known for. The big summer attraction is the fountains. Many people will come to the plaza just to see the fountains full. They will throw coins into the fountain and make a wish. Many people will go to the fountains and take pictures near them either wedding and engagement photos or senior pictures. I do not visit the plaza very often because the plaza is extremely expensive but on occasion I will pass through and watch the fountains and the people around to fountains. It is interesting to see the fountains can be a birth place of relationships and a place to meet to rekindle a relationship. The major attraction during the winter is the Plaza Christmas Lights. They are strung up throughout the plaza and there is a big gather when they turn on the lights on Thanksgiving. I have known people who will just visit the plaza to see the lights. It is another thing Kansas City is very proud of in the plaza.
The plaza is a shopping center and a country club. It is official name is the Kansas City Country Club Plaza. The tennis courts nearby are the only sign of it being a country club that I have ever noticed. Many people in the Kansas City area will come to the plaza to do their high end shopping and fine dining. It is the place where the most expensive and fanciest restaurants in the Kansas City area are located. Many high scholars will go to the plaza to have dinner before prom. I personally went to dinner before my senior prom and ate at an Italian restaurant and my brother, who is over two years older than I am, went to the plaza for dinner before his senior prom. The plaza to me is the fancy part of town. I do not visit it very often but every now and then when I feel like dressing up and going out I will make a trip to the Kansas City Plaza.

P.S. I know that this post is late and I will not be getting credit for it but I feel like I should create this post anyways just to make sure I have the same amount of posts as everyone else.
