        Buhler is located in Reno [RN] county, eleven miles northeast of Hutchinson. The northwest quadrant of town is filled with attractive homes. Downtown Buhler is neat and clean and active; Adrians A-Z stores are everywhere.

        Buhler got its first post office, named Hamburg, in early 1888. Later that year, the name was changed to Buhler. Many of the early settlers were German-speaking Mennonites who brought strong religious beliefs and strong wheat-farming skills.

• Wheatland Park on the east side of town is well-maintained and extensive. There's an interesting metal sculpture symbolizing the wheat that makes this area so prosperous.

• The Wall-Ratzlaff House at 103 N. Maple is an 1898 mansion that has been restored to its original state.
