Oklahoma has never really been known as a destination vacation in the United States because it doesn't have an oceanside beach or glorious mountains or many places. It's also not known for major events in history or many places to adventure and sight-see. Oklahoma may not seem like your typical vacation spot, but if you love road tripping and trying magnificent meals, then Oklahoma is the place to go. Oklahoma is known for its food and has many different restaurants throughout the entire state to prove it.
