Exploring the Western Charm of Cody
Wyoming’s Cody is remarkable in its way as it is a small town in the frontier area that was once the dwelling of the famous William ‘Buffalo Bill’ Cody and is the very place where the Old West history and nature met and mingled. It is a small town characterized by the best of both worlds: the grandeur of nature and the brilliance of human beings. It is situated just 52 miles from the entrance into Yellowstone lying towards the east side and thus, it encompasses the advantages of both sides. A rich West experience is not the only thing the town of Cody has in store for you but also a thriving and versatile cultural scene.
The Buffalo Bill Center of the West, the one complex of the five museums affiliated with the Smithsonian, is definitely one of the attractions you should never miss when visiting the city. Moreover, The Buffalo Bill Museum, with its engaging exhibits and multimedia installations, makes it possible to grasp the story of the showman and his Famous Wild West Show in no time. The research institute of the West, also the home of museum, is an artistic and scientific vision for the western lifestyle and heritage, featuring pieces on western art, American Indian history, firearms, and natural history.
The walkable downtown of Cody is a gem that is full of cowboy attire shops, art galleries, and incredible restaurants. Eat a delicious meal at the Irma Hotel, which was constructed by Buffalo Bill himself, or enjoy a country music show that is close by. The rodeo of the town, which is known as the Rodeo Capital of the World, invites people to watch its spectacular performances and reenactments. If you want to have a different experience, you can go off the beaten path to watch wild mustangs on the range or float the Shoshone River for which you get an amazing view of the rugged area.
