Sexy and sleek are the two words that best describe Topeka’s JW's Bar and Lounge. By no means is it a place where you have to really dress up, but you will draw attention to yourself if you show up in a t-shirt and shorts. Elegant and classy but not stuffy, JW's offers a great selection at the bar, excellent service and great music that make hanging out here feel like you're in some Hollywood nightlife hangout.

Forget the everyday stresses as you and your date escape to a romantic world where colors, artistic expression and inspiration are the main focus. Such a destination is the Mulvane Art Museum. You will both love strolling leisurely from one gallery to the next taking in some of the world's most breathtaking artwork on your date. The collections at the Mulvane are both national and international in scope, and the facility which first opened its doors in 1924, is the oldest accredited art museum west of the Mississippi River.

Topeka’s Shunga Trail is one of the city's most popular sites for recreational fun. This trail is ideal for walking, jogging, skating, and biking. It runs from the northeast corner of Topeka to the southwest corner. The majority of the trail runs through city parks, which makes it accessible to even more recreational opportunities for the whole family.

It's funny how cyclical everything is. About 30 years ago, music fans lamented the passing of the vinyl record album as it was pushed aside by the smaller, silvery compact disc. Now that mp3s and digital music downloads are the norm, the CD has gone the way of the record. But its magic is still very much alive at Topeka's CD Tradepost. There are three locations in town that all feature a constantly changing inventory and will offer you an opportunity to trade your discs in to receive store credit to trade in or purchase something they have in stock. They also offer a great selection of games and movies, too.
