Dallas and Fort Worth

Dallas and Fort Worth form the largest metropolitan area in Texas, in the northern part of the state, about 50 km from each other. The two cities have different personalities: Dallas, with its banks, commerce and skyscrapers, is marked by the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, remembered at the Sixth Floor Museum in the building from which the shots were fired. Downtown has one of the country’s largest arts districts, with the art museum, the museum of nature and science, and Klyde Warren Park.

Fort Worth presents itself as the city where the West begins. In the late 19th century, it was a stop for cattle drives heading north, and the Stockyards neighborhood preserves the corrals, the daily parade of longhorn cattle through the streets and weekend rodeos. The city also has a group of internationally renowned art museums, such as the Kimbell, by Louis Kahn, and the Modern, by Tadao Ando.

Arlington, Texas, lies between the two cities and brings together the region’s large theme parks and stadiums: Six Flags Over Texas, the first park in the chain, the Six Flags Hurricane Harbor water park, the stadium of the Dallas Cowboys and the home of the Texas Rangers baseball team.

Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, located among the three cities, is one of the busiest airports in the world and a connection point for travel across the country.

This destination brings together 3 cities: Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington.
