Since all those other states don't want you to come and visit, we'll welcome you to Kansas. I travel a lot for my job and when I tell people I'm from Kansas I usually get a snicker or polite smile. Most think of the Sunflower State as flyover country. I'm biased, but IMO nothing could be further from the truth.
Kansas doesn't have mountains or beaches, but we have some beautiful landscapes, remarkable natural features and a lot of friendly folks and a few old grouches.
Those who have traveled through Kansas on I-35 or I-70 have experienced the Flint Hills. The Flint Hills include the last remnants of native Tallgrass Prairie left in the United States (

No visit to Kansas would be complete without the Wizard of Oz. In Wamego, you can visit the Oz Museum. Established in 2004 the Oz houses one of the largest public displays of Oz memorabilia in existence. The museum houses memorabilia from 1939 MGM musical, earlier silent films, as well as "The Wiz."

If that's not enough there's the Evel Knievel Museum in Topeka, the Worlds Largest Ball of Twine in Cawker City, the world's deepest hand-dug well in Greensburg, and the Giant Van Gogh painting in Goodland.
