Like most major urban hubs, the city boasts an array of interesting attractions and activities. But in Dallas, as in most of Texas, they are somehow bigger and better. Visit the massive Dallas Art Museum to view permanent collections of African, European and American art or special exhibitions. The city is also big on children's attractions, making it a popular destination for families. Spend the morning at the Zoo and then head over to the Aquarium for a marine life extravaganza. History buffs won't want to miss the Sixth Floor Museum, an exhibition pertaining to the life and assassination of John F. Kennedy. Nature enthusiasts can go for a bike ride or hike through White Rock Lake Park. As in most world-class cities, Dallas offers a range of accommodations from grand historic hotels to budget digs. The city's restaurants may differ in price and cuisine but the portions are always - you guessed it - large. « less
