What do you think about when you think of Kansas? Do you think boring? Flat? Farms? The Wizard of Oz? Well when I think of this beautiful state, I think of my college town, Manhattan, KS. I think fun, amazing food, the happiest most genuine people, the sunsets, and so much more. So here's 5 things to do if you ever come to "The Hat."
1. Go to the Varsity Food truck
This famous food truck lies in Aggieville and opens up at 10:00 pm. And let me tell you, if you ever decide to stop by it you MUST get the Mac n cheese grilled cheese WIH bacon--yes this is a real thing!
2. Hike the Konza Prairie
If you're a little more adventurous, hike the Konza Prairie around 6:30 PM to watch the sunset. I think almost every KS native can agree on the fact that we have the most breath taking sunsets you'll ever see.
3. Look out at the city from Manhattan Hill
Another thing to do for those who are more spontaneous is to drive up to what we call Manhattan Hill. It says "Manhattan" in big white letters. It's the best place to have a picnic or sonic drink and overlook the entire city of Manhattan.
4. Devour a cookie bake
For those who have a sweet tooth: head on over to Mr. K's and get yourself a cookie bake. It's a cookie of your choice baked to PERFECTION, smothered with melted vanilla ice cream.
5. Tour the campus
We have the most friendly students here in Manhattan and the campus is absolutely stunning. It's something fun (and educational) for all ages!
But, no matter what you do in Manhattan, you're always in for the best time.
