Motoring Monday: Dodge City




If you think old west, one of the first places that usually comes to mind is Dodge City. Re-runs of more than 20 years of the television show “Gunsmoke” give people the chance to watch what it was like back then. But lots of historic areas around the city actually provide visitors their own opportunity to step back in time.

There are many places to visit in Dodge City, a few of them include:

  • Boot Hill Museum – transports you back to the 1800s with interactive and historic exhibits that illustrate life back then.

  • Gunfighters Wax Museum – life-size wax figures of numerous famous western people and characters.

  • Wild West Heritage Buffalo and Longhorn Exhibit – an exhibit as well as American Bison and Corrientes longhorn cattle.

  • Historic Downtown Dodge City – features historic locations of interest, custom metal art banners, art museum, guided tours and more.


Lots of special events take place throughout the year as well. For more information, check out http://www.visitdodgecity.org/
