During your Kansas City vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art
Kansas City's premier museum is especially noted for its Asian art, including Tang dynasty bowls and Ming dynasty furniture; an outdoor sculpture garden with the largest U.S. collection of bronzes by Henry Moore; the largest public collection of works by Missouri native Thomas Hart Benton (closed periodically due to an expansion that will increase the museum's size by 71%, slated for completion in 2007); a collection of 17th- and 18th-century European paintings; Impressionist and post-Impressionist pieces; and American art. The museum includes works by Caravaggio, Titian, Rembrandt, Renoir, Monet, Picasso, Gauguin, van Gogh, Andy Warhol, and Willem de Kooning. The airy Rozelle Court Restaurant has extended dinner hours on Friday, with live jazz. Plan on 2 hours or more here.

Toy and Miniature Museum
Occupying a 1911 mansion, this museum houses an extensive collection of antique dolls, more than 100 furnished dollhouses, marbles, and toys ranging from model trains to games, as well as perfect scale miniatures of houses, rooms, and furniture. The miniatures are fully functional -- scissors cut, clocks run, and musical instruments can be played, making it a fascinating experience for adults and kids alike. You can easily spend a fascinating hour or more here.

Arabia Steamboat Museum
This cargo steamboat, laden with 220 tons of merchandise destined for settlers out west, sank in the Missouri River in 1856, where it remained preserved in cold mud until it was excavated in the 1980s. A virtual time capsule of the 1850s and one of the best collections of pre-Civil War artifacts in the world, the museum provides a fascinating look at frontier life, with displays of the steamboat's cargo, from china and hardware to jewelry and leather boots (900 shoes and boots alone are on display). Tours begin with a film of the excavation and restoration of parts of the boat (which are now on display); plan on 1 1/2 hours here.

The Elms Resort & Spa
The Kansas City area's only full-service resort and spa occupies a historic 1912 limestone hotel situated on 16 landscaped acres, about a 30-minute drive from downtown and the airport. Its holistic spa and wellness center offers body and beauty treatments, including Swiss and Vichy showers; mud, seaweed, and aloe body wraps; mineral baths; hydrotherapy; massage (including reflexology and couples massage); and more. Rooms are basic, but the extensive recreational offerings, including an indoor swim track (a donut-shaped lap pool), banked jogging track, hiking and biking trails, badminton, horseshoes, and volleyball, as well as its parklike setting and rustic grandeur, make this a top-choice restorative getaway.

The Raphael
Overlooking Country Club Plaza, with its many shops and restaurants, this intimate, European-style hotel occupies a converted 1927 brick apartment house. Though not as grand as Kansas City's downtown historic hotels, it has a cozy ambience that attracts many repeat guests. Rooms are standard but vary in size; those facing the back are larger, but preferable are the smaller rooms with views of the plaza.

The Quarterage Hotel Westport
Near Westport's nightlife but far enough away for a good night's sleep, this modest but well-kept locally owned hotel, decorated with copies of Thomas Hart Benton's works, offers small, spotless, comfortable rooms, plus extras such as free local phone calls, a warm buffet breakfast, and an evening cocktail hour (Mon-Sat). VIP rooms toss in minifridges and sofa beds.
