32 Reviews The Meyerson Symphony Center is located near the Dallas Museum of Art, Guadalupe Cathedral and Nasher Sculpture Center in the Cultural District of Dallas.

64 Reviews I wasn't going to visit or take a picture of the Texas School Book Depository of infamy, but we were driving by, and I DID at least take a picture looking up at the building (although we didn't visit).

10 Reviews Mushroom burger had no mushroom and was under cooked. When asked they appogized and agreed to recook it to look like the rest of the burgers at our table. 3 out of 6 meals came 10 min late. To make up for it they gave free desert. We also waited 25 min to get a table when about half were available....
26 Reviews I have been to Deep Ellum a couple of times. The first time was to see a band...Lifehouse, I believe. And the second time was to eat at the Angry Dog (which you can see in my restaurant tips). Both times I felt it was very low key. While I was in college it was the "place to be" but I believe...

23 Reviews You can get to and from the Dallas/Ft Worth airport quite cheap, but it takes a few steps. (1) Take a shuttle bus to the South Remote Parking lot. Buses from terminals and the CentrePort/DFW Airport TRE Station meet there. Don't worry; the buses wait for each other. (2) Take the shuttle bus to the...

The main anchor department stores are Macy’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Nordstrom’s. This mall combines some of the best stores of Rodeo Drive such as Tiffany &...
8 Reviews Okay, just so you know where this knowledge is coming from, a little bit about me: I was born in Dallas, lived there until I was 4, then moved to Kansas, moved back home to Texas when I was 10. From 10-16 I lived in small-town East Texas, just north of Dallas (near Sherman/Denison). When I was 16 I...

43 Reviews The best thing is don`t make eye contact with anyone in public, don`t go out after dark, don`t answer your door, lock your car when driving, have pistol and two clips at the ready but the biggest dangers are the people running red lights so look both ways before crossing. Best off in between the...

13 Reviews I went to the West End many years ago & had a blast with my kids & my brother. We walked around, took the carriage ride & learned some Dallas history on the trip, got hit up by the rose peddlers, listened to street musicians, looked in the shops at the warehouse & had the best time listening to the...
4 Reviews Although you can probably leave out your snow boots, I would suggest being prepared for almost any other kind of weather (especially in spring)! You can never tell what the weather is going to be like. One day it is a hot, dry, 95 degrees, and the next day is 70 and raining. I would definitely...
15 Reviews I decided to walk from West Village to Mansion on Turtle Creek. Tell you the truth I didn't see anything interesting about Mansion; however, I discovered nice park area along the creek with tall fashionable buildings. Try Turtle Creek Dr and Cedar Springs to see new condominium buildings with...
6 Reviews When I was in Dallas at the Convention Center in 1997, I saw this park and took some pictures here. One of them is on my Dallas Intro page. It is Pioneer Plaza, the world's largest bronze sculpture of its kind and it depicts a cattle drive of 3 cowboys and 50 steers. Each piece was created by...
7 Reviews The American Airlines Arena is the site of many events, but it was the Dallas Mavericks game that drew us there over Christmas. The arena was jam-packed, so we had to split our group between two sections, which were across the court from each other. Our visit began with a bang, when our...

32 Reviews If you are anywhere near the West End or the JFK sites, you'll notice the old Dallas Courthouse sitting proudly on 100 S. Houston Street. The former courthouse, affectionately called OLD RED is a Romanesque Revival style building, which was erected in 1892 and is comprised of old granite and...
15 Reviews Interesting museum, filled with photos of JFK, videos and personal things. I didn't take audio tour, I think there are a lot of things to read on your own. I was excited to see the boxes that were there in the moment of assassination. Also it is worth to look on the stands with different theories...
