Quick Facts

National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum - There are hundreds of sculptures and thousands of paintings, photographs and artifacts from the Old West. There is a life-size reproduction of a frontier town, a rodeo gallery, a cowboy gallery and a frontier soldier gallery. You will also see the largest collection of contemporary western artists, as well as the well-known paintings of Frederick Remington.

Frontier City Theme Park - Bring the kids to this western-theme amusement park operated by Six Flags. There are 75 rides, shows, games and attractions, including four roller coasters. Let the wee ones play in Paul Bunyan's Tiny Timber Town, and visit the authentic 1880s western town.

Oklahoma City National Memorial - April 19, 1995 was one of the darkest days in Oklahoma City's history. On that day the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building was bombed. When you visit this memorial, you will see 168 empty chairs; one for each person killed. The most moving thing to see, however, is the part of the fence that has been left over from the makeshift memorial that stood here for five years. On it, you will see letters, photos, flowers and more left by survivors and visitors.
