8 days in Oklahoma City Itinerary

Oklahoma City, known to many as the "Big Friendly," represents the political, cultural, and economic engine of the state of Oklahoma.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to American Banjo Museum and Civic Center Music Hall. Explore Oklahoma City's surroundings by going to Red Rock Canyon Adventure Park (in Hinton), Mabee-Gerrer Museum of Art (in Shawnee) and Stafford Air & Space Museum (in Weatherford). There's still lots to do: explore the world behind art at Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art, contemplate the long history of Henry Overholser Mansion, examine the collection at The American Pigeon Museum & Library, and take in the architecture and atmosphere at St. Joseph Old Cathedral.
