The Keeper of the Plains is a 44-foot tall steel sculpture standing at the point where the Big and Little Arkansas rivers join together in downtown Wichita. This land between the two rivers is sacred ground to the Native American people and is also home to the Mid-America All-Indian Center. The Indian Warrior sculpture was created by Wichitan and Native American artist Blackbear Bosin (1921-1980).
Come in time for the sunsets to enjoy the view along the eastern shore of the Arkansas River.

Top Keeper of the Plains Hotel Reviews

Wyndham Garden Wichita Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our family suite very spacious "

Best Western Plus Wichita West Airport Inn

10/10 Excellent

"it is near the airport and a highway so, noise is to be expected. both apple maps and google maps give poor and wrong directions. google maps as linked from expedia actually insisted on a wrong turn and a two mile loop over and over. note that it is a bit tricky to get into the property but on the opposite side of the divided highway where google maps takes you. on the plus side a wide selection and complimentary breakfast is available from 6:00-9:30 am which is nice and a noon check-out time is convenient . plenty of amenities and rates are reasonable. i will stay again.
