About McKinney
Its hard to believe that many of the places in this city are hundreds of years old. From historic museums to contemporary installations, we've gathered just about everything you need to know before planning your trip. Here you'll find great ideas for local activities, recommendations from other travelers, and insider tips from our own editors. We love the adventure and engaging history of our city. The culture and energy of the Southwest have found their way to McKinney. It's no wonder why we have been called "the best little town in Texas".
