Oklahoma City Vacation & Tourism Guide
photo by Kim Dovell, Chris and Bert
Located directly in the center of the state, Oklahoma City stands as a modern marvel surrounded by the endless horizons of the Great Plains. It's weather and history make this city very appealing to visitors. There are a host of attractions, events, and things to do, including the Frontier City Theme Park, one of the most popular attractions for visitors and town folk. Whatever the reason for visiting, this historic truly western city has great appeal. You may even see a cowboy on horseback tipping his hat to a passing lady. Oklahoma City is where the Old West meets the New West, with country style.
