Kansas City is known as the Heart of America as it is located geographically in the center of America. It is also called the “City of Fountains” because it has more than 200 fountains, the second most in the world, just behind Rome.
ISKCON Kansas City is very close to the Plaza, where thousands of people gather during weekends and special days. It is located across the street from Rockhurst University and a few minutes walk from the University of Missouri at Kansas City (UMKC). The devotee community is growing around the temple and there are ample opportunities to preach and spread Krishna Consciousness.
