Weston

County: Platte

Historic Weston draws throngs of visitors as well as new residents to its charming atmosphere and first-rate amenities.  Offering a slice of American heritage served with Midwestern hospitality, the city features magnificent antebellum homes and other historic sites, tobacco barns, fruit orchards, educational farms, the old distillery, and an award-winning winery.  Colorful festivals and celebrations dot the annual calendar, celebrating local lore and seasonal holidays.  Other major attractions include snow skiing, four-star dining, wonderful antique shopping, live musical entertainment, and Weston Bend State Park on the bluffs of the Missouri River where Lewis and Clark walked.  The city parks add tennis courts, a basketball court, open recreational space, and picnic facilities.  Few places in the Kansas City Metro area can rival Western for old-fashioned charm and appeal.
