1 Review This is a free park with sculpture done by Texas artists. There are both indoor and outdoor sculptures. We took our granddaughter here to see them one day. She enjoyed the more representational ones. There is a map of the outdoor sculpture locations, and each exhibit has the name and the name of the...
3 Reviews Driving through Hall Office Park you will see the oddest sculptures dotting beautifully manicured lawns and landscaped gardens. It is almost like a small city. There are 37 which have produced by some of Texas’ most famous artists.
1 Review The downtown area isn’t great and it’s a reasonable distance from the major and more modern shopping areas like Stonebriar Mall and all the shopping areas across from it. A lot of the original buildings however have been restored. The shops you will find will sell antiques, clothing, quilting...
1 Review This park is located on Parkwood drive and spreads out across 8 acres next to the Hampton Inn & Suites. In the rolling grassy landscape you will find many historic quotes on the concrete steps and walkways, several water fountains, an amphitheatre and most notably the large sized bronzed sculptures...
1 Review Located in the heart of Frisco is the Minor League Baseball team, the Frisco Rough Riders who play at Dr. Pepper Ballpark. This is one of the best minor league ballparks in the country to catch a game, and the entertainment lasts much longer than just the 9 innings in the game. Mascots races, diaper...
1 Review The trail was originally used by Indians in their hunting and raiding. After settlers arrived, they called the route the Texas Road. The first drovers then renamed the route several times to the ‘cattle trail’, the Sedalia Trail and the Kansas Trail and it is uncertain why it over time became known...
1 Review This was the earliest principal route of the Texas longhorn cattle drive which began going through this area around 1840. The cattle were driven from Austin through Waco and Dallas up north along the eastern edge of Oklahoma (as it is now) and up to Kansas City or to Sedalia, Missouri where there...
1 Review Frisco RoughRiders Professional Baseball, the Texas Rangers’ Double-A Affiliate, announced today that they are the first team in sports history to bring the bullpen right into the seats behind first and third bases. “This is unheard of. We’ve never seen another ballpark with both bullpens built...
1 Review Frisco Bridges is a new complex which incorporates office and retail outlets. You see these structures around the newer Frisco areas. The development will also include a hotel and family oriented attractions. There are a number of these developments springing up in Frisco.
1 Review The grounds undulate in parts and on the highest point there are two recreated watering holes which cascade down both sides of the hill. These are an attempt to recreate where the cattlemen would stop during the trail drives.

Texas Land and Cattle: More Frisco Restaurants
DEBBBEDB Says: This is a chain steak house (most outlets in Texas) so we normally have steak, and the children have chicken fingers and fries. A favorite appetizer is Spicy Spinach & Artichoke Dip with a hint of jalapeno and topped with Jack cheese. Served with tortilla chips 6.49 My...
DEBBBEDB Says: This is a good restaurant for us because they have lots of games for children to play with while they are waiting for a table or for food. The restaurant is decorated with stags heads, antlers, wagon wheels and a large stuffed bear. The tables are covered with black and...
keeweechic Says: The AMC movie theatres are on the 3rd floor of the Stonebriar Mall. They have 24 auditoriums with wall to wall screens. With all the modern equipment you can choose a stadium seat or cuddle up on the love seats. You can purchase tickets either at the theatre or at...
Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW)
ATXtraveler Says: Guarenteed not to disappoint you, DFW lives up to its name as one of the largest airports in the world. Because of its Central location in the US, its relatively warm weather, and the wide open spaces known as the Texas plain, DFW seems to be an ideal location to link your...
