Top 5 Dallas Texas Attractions
Whether you are planning a trip to the second largest city in Texas or want to know more about this illustrious destination, Dallas definitely presents its fair share of intriguing attractions and activities to enjoy. Jam-packed with top-notch zoos and interesting museums, the city is definitely a booming place to visit in terms of history, culture, art, nightlife, entertainment, and excitement. Below you will find some of the top points of interest scattered about the Dallas area.
Dallas Arts District
As you explore the awe-inspiring Dallas Arts District, you will encounter an inviting assortment of fine and performing arts venues. A variety of impressive landmarks are also situated in this part of town, which presents the exhilaration of productions held at the Morton H Meyerson Symphony Center, Dallas Theater Center, and the Trammal Crow Center Pavilion.
Dallas Zoo
Situated in their natural habitats, the animals living at the Dallas Zoo hail from all corners of the world. Visitors lucky to plan a trip during the summer will be able to enjoy a Monorail ride about the zoo grounds, where you may come close to the “Wilds of Africa.” This inspiring sight showcases an 85-acre park holding rare Sumatran tigers, and a forest filled with chimpanzees.
Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens
Venturing a little outside of the downtown Dallas area, you will encounter the colorful spread of the arboretum on White Rock Lake, which offers daily tours and an open garden all-year-long. Many events take place on the premises, including banquets and the romantic scene of weddings. Some of the blooms you will encounter on the grounds include breathtaking azaleas in the spring (some of the best in the country) and attractive chrysanthemums in the fall.
Dallas Sports
Whether or not you are a Dallas cowboy fan, you will learn to respect the awesome sight of the Texas Stadium, as well as the many other sporting and entertainment events that the city has to offer. Dallas is home to an arena football team (Dallas Desperados); NBA basketball (Dallas Mavericks); NHL team (Dallas Stars); and other sports squads, such as a major league and indoor soccer lineup.
Fair Park
Fair Park can be found southeast of downtown Dallas, which was constructed to host the Texas Centennial Exposition in 1936. Today, the site serves as the Texas State Fair location, which is considered one of the largest in the nation. During the months of September and October, more than three million people pour in to enjoy the festivities. Fair Park is also home to a wide-range of museums, including a medical gallery, a planetarium and a fun-filled IMAX theatre.
