 Hanging out downtown |
Sheridan Avenue Oklahoma City, OK 73104 United States +1 405 297 8912 (Oklahoma City Convention And Visitors Bureau) http://www.bricktownokc.com/ |
The Bricktown Canal is one of Oklahoma City's most popular tourist destination. Loosely modeled after San Antonio's River Walk, the canal is manmade and runs through the historic Bricktown district. There are restaurants and shops nearby and along the canal, but the real draw is the people watching. Come by after a Redhawks game, played in the nearby Bricktown Ballpark, or for one of the many happenings. Always festive, this is a great place just to hang out. Review © 2007, Wcities |

On with the show... |
400 West Sheridan Avenue Oklahoma City, OK 73102 United States +1 405 270 4800 http://www.stagecenter.com/ |
Oklahoma City has a thriving arts community. One of the most popular and critically-acclaimed programs is Carpenter Square. This year marks the program's 16th season of year-round live entertainment. Shows are for an adult audience, children under 5 are not permitted to attend shows. Youngsters likely would prefer a performance at the Oklahoma Children's Theatre. Shows are hip--as evidenced by "Picasso at the Lapin Agile," May's featured play. Written by actor-comedian Steve Martin, the story tracks Picasso and Einstein throughout an evening at a Paris nightclub. Review © 2007, Wcities |

If you are lucky enough to be in Oklahoma City during hockey season, you have got to catch a Blazers game. The team plays at the Myriad Convention Center, and although they might not be major league, the action is fast and this team is fantastic. The Oklahoma fans love hockey, and you can tell by the way that they cheer the team on during the 35 games between October and March. Tickets range from USD9-USD16 with discounts for seniors and children under 12. Review © 2007, Wcities |

In memory of those who died in the bombing |
620 North Harvey Avenue Oklahoma City, OK 73102 United States +1 405 235 3313 / +1 888 542 4673 http://www.oklahomacitynationa... |
April 19, 1995 was one of the darkest days in America's history. When you visit this memorial, you will see 168 empty chairs—one for each person killed. The most moving thing to see, however, is the part of the fence that has been left over from the makeshift memorial that stood here for five years. On it, you will see letters, photos, flowers and more left by survivors and visitors. Notice the Survivor Tree, it has become a symbol of hope to the people of Oklahoma City. Admission to the outside memorial is free, but the museum charges a fee. Review © 2007, Wcities |

On the Register of Historic Places |
127 Northwest 7th Street Oklahoma City, OK 73102 United States +1 405 235 3436 http://www.stpaulsokc.org |
For more than a century this downtown cathedral has served the Catholic community in Oklahoma City. St. Paul's suffered significant damage as a result of the Murrah bombing, but has since rebuilt, dedicating one of the new structures to those who died on April 19. Guests are invited to attend one of three Sunday services at the cathedral, or visitors can come to its quiet sanctuary to pray and pay their respects to bombing victims. Review © 2007, Wcities |
