2025 Dallas Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in August)
Big hair, scandal, and flashy spending is lingering impressions of this Texan city left over from the 1980s TV show. In reality, Dallas does offer loads of shopping and you can certainly see the upper crust at play uptown and on McKinney Ave. Delving a bit deeper than the stereotypes, you’ll find opportunities to take in a rodeo, golf, ride the roller coasters at Six Flags Texas , take in a Dallas Cowboys football game, or arrive in autumn to explore the Texas State Fair , second largest in the nation. Supposedly haunted park White Rock Lake is also just outside of town and lovely for walking in, assuming your not flustered by the possibility of a supernatural encounter. Deep Ellum (for hipsters) and downtown (for whoever) is where the best nightlife is discovered.

🇺🇸Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas, USA
#Art Gallery The Dallas Museum of Art, abbreviated as DMA, is located in Dallas, Texas, USA. It is one of the largest and most historic art museums in the United States and was founded in 1903. In 1984, the museum moved from its original location in Fair Park to the Dallas Arts District in Texas. The museum's collection includes more than 24,000 works spanning more than 5,000 years of history. Exhibits come from all over the world, including ancient Egyptian art, European paintings🎨, Native American art, and contemporary art🖼️. The Dallas Museum of Art is particularly known for its collection of European and American art, and regularly hosts special exhibitions and academic lectures. The museum also has educational spaces and interactive display areas, dedicated to promoting art and culture, and is an important local cultural and educational center.
The space inside the museum is very spacious, and the various exhibition areas are clearly divided, but because of its large scale, it is recommended to look at the map first 🗺️ to avoid getting lost. The museum displays a rich variety of art works, and you can choose specific areas to visit slowly according to your personal interests. Especially my favorite lobster 🦞 and crab 🦀 works, the shapes are lifelike and the details are amazing!
Before leaving, we were very lucky to meet a passionate staff member who took us to see Picasso’s famous work "The Guitarist"🎸! The staff member specifically pointed out Picasso's signature on the painting and asked us to take a closer look. It was such a surprising detail. Being able to see Picasso’s original works with my own eyes, especially seeing his autograph, really makes me feel extremely lucky and deeply appreciate the preciousness of this trip! ✨

The Dallas World Aquarium 🐟🐬
#timetotravel
The Dallas World Aquarium, situated at 1801 N Griffin St, Dallas, TX, is a captivating blend of aquatic wonders and lush rainforest environments. From the moment I entered, I was transported into a mesmerizing world of biodiversity.
The aquarium's highlight is the stunning recreated Orinoco Rainforest, complete with cascading waterfalls, exotic birds, and endangered species like the jaguar and manatee. The immersive experience is enriched by informative exhibits that emphasize conservation efforts.
The aquatic section is equally impressive, featuring an array of marine life, including playful river otters and graceful jellyfish. The tunnel that leads through the vibrant aquatic exhibits felt like a journey beneath the ocean.
The Dallas World Aquarium is a treasure trove of knowledge and adventure. It effortlessly combines education and entertainment, making it perfect for families, couples, or solo explorers. It's a reminder of the beauty and importance of our planet's ecosystems and a call to protect them. #dallas #Texas #usa

The 6th floor museum (Kennedy menorial)
Getting There - Downtown dallas, texas. There are some buses around and the monoriel but the best option is to go by car if possible.
Hotels - since it’s downtown, there are many hotel options around the memorial but it’s just a short activity that would take you 1-2 hours.
Food & Restaurants: There’s a nice little cafe crossing the street but downtown Dallas is full of cafes and restaurants. Be careful because they all close around 3pm until dinner time. #kennedymemorial #dallas #texas

Explore Science with Fun
I was very excited to finally visit Dallas, Texas. While scrolling up Google for things to do while in Dallas, Perot Museum of Nature and Science is on the top of the list.
I felt like a kid geek again watching through the different kinds of attractions inside the museum. It is highly recommended to all ages - from ages to teenagers, young adults and even to senior citizens.
You will leave the place full of next learnings and interesting new scientific knowledges gained just by merely looking at the different sites to see.
When in Texas, visit this place and you will not regret it. Watch it from your own eyes. #tripblazers #spooktaculartrip
A Memory with President Bush
President George W. Bush is probably one of the most remembered US president because it was during his time that the September 11 terrorist attack happened in New York City. He will forever be remembered for that.
This George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum in Dallas, Texas is a perfect way to remember his legacy and outstanding achievement as a president. There are a lot of things to see in here from memorabilia to videos coverage to actual things he owned.
This is definitely a place to visit while in Dallas county in Texas. They also have a coffee shop and souvenir place within the compound of the museum.
Concert in Dallas
Me and my family went out to Dallas for a concert I was going to and we took the chance to also explore a bit of Dallas. The whole experience was amazing the weather was a bit cold but nothing too extreme and if I’m going to be honest I love the cool weather, we went during January so it is understandable. When we first arrived we stopped by the venue where the concert was going to be at which was the Texas Trust Cu theater it looked really nice on the outside and when we arrived for the concert and actually went inside it was even better. Aside from the concert we also went to the Asian market place and bought some really good Korean corn dogs along with macarons they were delicious. We also stopped by the AT&T stadium which was huge and definitely worth getting a tour of even you might not be a fan it’s lot’s of fun. We ended our trip going to old city park we’re we got to see many horses and lots of phot opportunities as the area looks just like an old town. It was definitely a very fulfilling trip and would love to go back.#tripblazers #deliciousfood #mytripvlog #awesomepic
A Walk through Dallas
Dallas can often be seen as a boring city, however the city has its own charm. Although the city itself is sprawling, the Downtown area is better served with trams. Further it's much less busy and chaotic than other American downtowns.
Head to the historic and iconic Sixth floor museum, where president JFK was assassinated. Dallas also has some more modern architecture, which is nice to appreciate. Don't forget to try the city's BBQ before leaving; you won't regret this filling dish!

Trip to the zoo with my aspiring Zoologist!
1.
Address - 650 S R L Thornton Fwy, Dallas, TX 75203
Highlights - While making a quick weekend trip to see family, we knew we needed to keep my aspiring Zoologist teenager entertained so what better way to do that then with a trip to this amazing zoo!!!
It took us about 3 hours to go through and see every exhibit. She was completely captivated by the exhibits that had a caretaker that was going over information of the animals.
Being from Michigan, one of my favorite parts was the numerous cooling stations that we happened to come across just as I needed the air conditioning most!!
Rating - Definitely 5 stars 🤩 would recommend to everyone!

While I was in Dallas, TX for classes on flying , I want to start off by saying that’s one hell of a City . I met some of the most amazing people , got to walk down town , and adventure into some very unique cultures . It was 4 very long days of reviewing and studying and 1 long 8 hour test . Got to admit it was definitely worth it ! My score was a 98/100 ; I only missed 2 questions & got to fly for the very first time before leaving to go back home to Nashville, TN . ♥️♥️♥️

Thanks to
Thanks to @AmericanAirlines, American Airlines invited to Rio to participate in the Carnival. From Hong Kong, take the American Airlines business class to Brazil. Long-distance flights can be found all the way to reduce the fatigue of the journey. Just know that American Airlines is the world's largest airline. )
Boeing 777-300er model business class in a row of four, are corridors, the surprise is that the aircraft uses the global sleep technology company Casper products, all the way to sleep is very comfortable.
The meal on the meal is also worth recommending. The first time I eat the vegetable salad on the plane, I want a second copy. The Chinese meal is also very good!
Wi-Fi service is available throughout the plane and can be used in the air. Other hardware is also good, Bose noise canceling headphones, COLE HAAN American brand wash bag, entertainment system with more than 200 movies.
From the departure of China, there are flight attendants on the plane who speak Chinese, which is convenient for passengers who do not speak the language.
14 hours from China to the United States, 10 hours from the United States to Brazil, luggage is still very convenient, recommended to small partners planning to travel to South America.
The Dallas
The Dallas Museum of Art (DMA) does not require tickets to be purchased, but there are special exhibitions in certain areas that require tickets to enter. When we came to visit, we parked the car in the parking lot of the museum. It is a fee. If you want to save money, you can stop at a farther street. Waiting outside the queue for a while before entering the market, there may be traffic restrictions. There are quite a lot of exhibits, some of them have even had a history of more than a thousand years, and it takes a long time to visit. Deliberately found Van Gogh's "Sheaves of Wheat" true trace, I thought it was Monet's "Grasshopper" at first.
The first floor is an exhibition of modern art and sculpture, the second floor is the ancient Mediterranean and European art, which can be seen from the perspectives of Monet, Van Gogh, Courbet, Sinek, Vial, etc. In Europe, there are antiques and master paintings from Greece and Rome, as well as 20th-century works by Picasso, Giacometti, Les Gets and Mondrian. On the third floor are works by Van Gogh, Pisaro, and Czanne. The fourth floor features art from Africa, Asia and the Pacific. The fourth floor exhibits the art of ancient America and modern America.
After visi
After visiting the Dallas Museum of Art, we arrived at the Nasher Sculpture Center, which is home to modern sculptures. You can borrow a small book that introduces each sculpture for free at the counter. You can return it after the tour. In addition to the indoor exhibits, there is a small garden outside to showcase many sculptures. The environment is very good and the atmosphere is very casual. Note that his home is not open on Monday.
Built in J
Built in June 1970, Kennedy Square looks like a hollow building with a square, no roof, no doors and windows, and a suspended ceiling. It consists of 72 suspended white concrete columns forming a circle of square walls, 30 feet high and 50 feet long and 50 feet apart, except for a narrow passageway for each person on the south and north sides. Like a closed, isolated "tomb", but what it represents and symbolizes, is the soul and spirit of the youngest president of the United States who advocates freedom.
Online reviews say this is the fastest-visiting spot in the world, and it takes about 6 seconds. Because it's just a square building like this, that's it. November 22, 1963, 12
The museum
The museum is located on the sixth floor of the original "Texas School Book Depository". The sniper used to leave traces of the crime here. Reproduce the story of President John F. Kennedy being assassinated through hundreds of television history shows and radio shows, movies, photos and artifacts. Visit the sniper's hiding place and the location where the rifle was found. The rifle was still preserved as it was when it was discovered on November 22, 1963. Visit the FBI's "Dealey Plaza" scale model and an interactive touch screen showing the team's route through the square. Visit the 7th floor and experience a variety of special programs and exhibitions that complement the museum's long-term exhibitions.

One-Day Exploration of the City's Landmarks

One of the largest cultural districts in the U.S., home to top-tier art venues like the Dallas Museum of Art and the Nasher Sculpture Center. Art lovers should set aside at least half a day to savor it all.

This museum, full of Western flair, documents Dallas’s oil boom history. The cowboy culture exhibit on the top floor is super fun!
💡Practical Tips:
