Oklahoma City, Capital city in Great Plains, United States.
Oklahoma City stretches across 1,608 square kilometers of land, encompassing parts of four counties and containing numerous parks and green spaces throughout the metropolitan area.
The city emerged from the Land Run of 1889, when 10,000 settlers established residences in a single day on previously unassigned territory in central Oklahoma.
The National Cowboy Museum maintains an extensive collection of Western art, artifacts, and historical documents that detail the development of the American frontier.
Will Rogers World Airport connects travelers through three major interstate highways: I-35 running north-south, I-40 running east-west, and I-44 running southwest-northeast.
The city maintains underground tunnels and skyways, known as the Underground, allowing people to traverse nearly two kilometers of downtown without exposure to weather.
