Things To Do
JFK Memorial
Visit the memorial plaza, 6th floor museum, and Dealey plaza to learn about the history of JFK's assassination.
Reunion Tower
561 foot observation deck with a restaurant (it also turns at certain hours!)
The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden
Be sure to check the weather!
AT&T Stadium
Jerry World! Visit the home of the Dallas Cowboys. Tours are available.
Six Flags Over Texas
If you've got extra time, why not go to an amusement park? There is also Hurricane Harbor water park, which will be great for the Texas heat.
Downtown Dallas
Reunion tower, JFK memories, Arts District, Aquarium, Farmer's Market, American Airlines Center, and a giant eyeball??
Deep Ellum
Artsy neighborhood next to downtown with restaurants, bars, and murals.
Arts District
This downtown area has a few art museums, and Klyde Warren Park is a good spot to relax outside, with food trucks nearby.
Carrollton "Koreatown"
One of the asian areas with plazas full of restaurants, grocery stores, and more. 99 Ranch, Hmart, Daiso, 85C Bakery, Gen BBQ, Omi BBQ, BCD Tofu House, Kinokuniya Bookstore, etc.
Fort Worth
If you are confused by how cosmopolitan Dallas is, head over to Fort Worth. Here you visit the Stockyards or go to a rodeo. The art museum and botanical gardens are also worth a visit.
Pecan Lodge
Our favorite Texas barbeque spot, located in Deep Ellum. There's also a cute pie shop next door. FAVORITES: Brisket, beef rib (if available) PRO TIP: There will be a wait. You can skip to the express line if you order 5+ pounds, so try to go with a group. The trough is a good way to sample several items.
More Restaurants
We are big foodies, so here's a spreadsheet of our favorite places!
