Kansas City

This museum houses a fantastic array of work from Rembrandt and Renoir, one of the world’s best Oriental art collections in addition to Henry Moore sculptures. You’ll know you’ve reached the museum when you see the giant orange birdie (as in badminton, not the animal) in the front lawn. The collections and exhibits in the museum change frequently, so you can come back at a later date and see something entirely new. The building itself is notable, designed in neoclassical style. It made big headlines when it was built during the Great Depression, as it seemed quite luxurious. Bonus for those on a shoestring: Admission is free.
