OK, I know that what I’m about to say may sound far-fetched to some, but I’m going to throw it out there anyway. I’ve gushed time and time again about my love of the Sunflower State and how beautiful I find it to be…but I just so happen to think that Kansas is gorgeous enough to resemble a few of the fairy tales I read growing up. Does that sound crazy? Check out these 11 pictures and tell me what you think:
1. St. Mary's
It looks as though the Hunchback of Notre Dame used to wander these aisles...
2. Lawrence
Look closely and you can see the Frog Prince swimming near the shore.
3. Riley County
Cue the shadow of Peter Pan flying around in the distance!
4. Kanopolis Lake
Isn't this the same shore where Prince Eric first met the Little Mermaid? (In the Disney version, anyway.)
5. Walsburg
Walsburg, Kansas: Home to Thumbelina, the tiny girl from the Hans Christian Andersen classic.
6. Cathedral of the Plains (Victoria)
This is definitely the setting for every royal wedding ever penned.
7. Dover
While it isn't necessarily a fairy tale, I can definitely picture Pollyanna and Aunt Polly sitting on the porch of the Sage Inn.
8. Stull
Alice in Wonderland; definitely Alice in Wonderland.
9. Salina
Auntie Em?!
10. Coronado Heights (Lindsborg)
Coronado Heights reminds me of the castle the princess ALWAYS gets locked away in...
11. Cray Castle (Atchison)
...and Cray Castle is where the princess lives happily ever after!
Which spots in Kansas do you find most fairy tale-ish? Tell me in the comments!
