Zona Rosa was built just a few years ago from the ground up located right next to gridlock-prone Barry Road. Zona Rosa has designer shopping, dine-in restaurants, loft housing and entertainment for all ages.



The buzz surrounding the area's latest addition has spread beyond the reaches of the city limits, and now visitors from around the Midwest come to window browse, eat and relax.



Zona Rosa's location is perfect for any traveler. It's only a minute or two from the hotels around Kansas City International airport, and is centrally located within the entire area north of the river.



Designer apparel is a big draw for some travelers who aren't used to seeing such easily accessible outfitters. Stores like American Eagle, Buckle, and Hollister are within Zona Rosa.



The Men's Warehouse and New York & Company are there to provide a more sophisticated look for men and women.



Places like the Disney Store and Gamestop provide a wide assortment of toys and video games for kids and adults of all ages.



Zona Rosa is also well known for its fine restaurants. Hereford House is one such restaurant, and their steaks are a Kansas City tradition.



Another great restaurant for the adult crowd is the Granite City Food and Brewery. They make their food from scratch and brew their beer in house.



If it's dessert you're looking for, look no further than Cold Stone Creamery. They have several ice cream combinations made fresh daily. It's also true that the employees will sing to you if they're given a tip.



The Majestic is a movie theater, an improv comedy club and a restaurant. These venues provide visitors with food and beverage right at their seats. The style of The Majestic and the quality of service make it a great place to see a movie or simply dine-in.



With all the stores, restaurants and entertainment to see at Zona Rosa, it's no wonder why it's one of the most popular places to visit in Kansas City. For more information on Zona Rosa, visit their Web site below. The site is easy to navigate and can help plan your trip.



So whether you're looking for something fun to do in Kansas City, or just planning on window shopping, Zona Rosa is the perfect place for you.
