Penn Valley Park

"I absolutely love this park, and I come here numerous times a year and just about a few times a week in order to take pix of the way the trees and nature's changing thru out the year. The KC metro skyline is absolutely phenomenal from the statue that's located past the parking lot and tennis courts. I personally think that it's a rather romantic location as well, and if I ever do find the one that I wanna marry, my plan is to get engaged here as well"

"Beautiful and scenic park, and a place to reflect on the contrasting sacrifice and terror of war, and to honor those who serve. Excellent for a peaceful walk and catching a perfect view of downtown Kansas City."

"What a great place to explore! Make sure you take the time to buy tickets ahead of time and go to the top of the memorial! The views are stunning!!! Lots of other parts of the park to see and take time to read about the history. The tour does not take very long. Everyone is very knowledgeable and kind. There are also concessions inside/food and gifts for purchase. Also lots of places to sit and just take in all of your surroundings."

"Absolutely beautiful park. A large portion of it is dedicated to our Veterans (emphasizing WW1). The museum itself is an amazing testament to our support of a free world. Both sides of the conflict are very well represented, and really helps drive the message home for future generations to not make the same mistakes. I would highly recommend this for any military buff or any general history geek. It's an amazing trip into 1914-18."
