OVERVIEW
Oklahoma City is a large capital built across flat central plains, with a compact downtown, extensive residential neighbourhoods and former industrial districts under redevelopment. Energy, agriculture and transport have strongly influenced its growth. Port sits alongside local food, placing the principal sights within a broader inhabited landscape. Port sits alongside museums, placing the principal sights within a broader inhabited landscape.
Museums, food and sporting events provide the strongest urban interest, while memorial sites add important recent history. A car is generally necessary because the metropolitan area is widely dispersed. Museums provides the most immediate experience, while local food offers a quieter and more local perspective. Routes through neighbourhoods lead naturally towards residential districts, so the experience changes without requiring long transfers.
