The city has outstanding convention facilities, world class accommodations, fine restaurants and an endless variety of entertainment and recreational opportunities, especially in the downtown areas that include museums, shopping, events, live entertainment, western flair and historic discovery and amusement parks.

Dallas & the Fort Worth area is the best place in America to experience the nation's proud Western heritage. In Mesquite, you can watch a real rodeo, in the Stockyards National Historic District, you can watch the world's only daily cattle drive, in Grapevine you can take a ride on a vintage train, belly up to the bar at an authentic saloon or two-step the night away in a larger than life honky-tonk.

Shopping in Dallas is an event where you can discover one-of-a-kind boutiques to internationally recognized shopping malls to hip new shopping districts. Stroll through Highland Park Village, America's oldest shopping center, Sundance Square or soak in the energy of Knox-Henderson. This is one vacation where you're sure to return home with more than a few keepsakes.

Dallas Ft Worth is home to some of America's most celebrated sports franchises where you can take in a game or a behind the scenes tour of these great facilities. And the best part of all? It's a vacation that won't break the bank.
