Jefferson City Visitor Guide - (Page 14) THE CAPITAL CITY BY NIGHT Night view of the Missouri Veterans Memorial at the State Capitol. Darkness changes everything, including the mood. Village lights blink to life and invite the night air to come and cool the pace. The Capitol dons its evening wear. The river whispers memories of fur traders and steamboat captains, settlers and scallywags. It tells you that it’s time to shift into slow-motion. You’ll discover that taking it easy is suddenly easier after dark in Jefferson City. The flavor of Jefferson City dining ranges from pizza to grill and pub to casual and formal elegance. If you like outside dining try downtown or our wineries. After dessert, window shop downtown, then nestle in at one of the area’s many bed and breakfasts, historic hotels or contemporary accommodations. New restaurants, hotels and motels are opening in Jefferson City all the time. For a list of affiliated restaurants and lodging facilities, log on to www.VisitJeffersonCity.com. Want to see a side of the city that only comes out at night? Begin your evening with a “glow walk” on the capitol grounds. The Roman renaissance architecture assumes an entirely new personality that radiates inside and out. If you’re still up for more after that, stroll around Jefferson Landing and listen to the Missouri River’s endless dialogue with the bluffs as the lights of the Capitol dance on its current. 14 http://www.VisitJeffersonCity.com
