Attractions/Sightseeing
Downtown Oklahoma has some great attractions to keep you busy while waiting for the wedding bells! Below is a few places that we thought we would like to share with our guests.
The Myriad Botanical Gardens
The Myriad Botanical Gardens is one of Oklahoma City’s most beloved public spaces, offering its visitors a 15 acre natural escape in the very heart of the metro known as downtown Oklahoma City. It is a few short blocks from the Character Inn Conference Center. It boasts of beautiful grounds that are available 6am-11pm to stroll through and (for a small fee) a Crystal Bridge Tropical Conservatory which is open 9am-5pm. See website for details.
Through the month of August, Sonic is sponsering a summer movie in the park on Wednesday evenings. August 19 starting at 9pm, they will be playing Guardian’s of the Galaxy. Take a towel or lawn chairs and enjoy the green grass and a good flick! Click here for flyer.
Bricktown
Bricktown is an entertainment district just east of downtown Oklahoma City. It was formerly a major warehouse district. The major attractions of the district are the Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark, the navigable Bricktown Canal, and the 16-screen Harkins movie theater. Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar & Grill is located in Bricktown, as is the corporate headquarters of Sonic Drive-In.
We highly suggest taking a stroll down the river walk. Its a nice relaxing walk with history sprinkled along the way. 🙂
