While most people associate Texas with BBQ and larger-than-life foods, this state has much more to offer. Dallas has a thriving culture and an arts scene all its own. Get a flavor for the city by visiting these cultural attractions and ending your day with a hearty Texas-style BBQ meal.
Some things can only exist in Texas, and the George W. Bush Presidential Center is one of them. This museum is dedicated to Bush’s presidency and contains a full-scale model of the Oval Office.
For a less politically-charged activity, browse the Dallas Museum of Art in the heart of the city. The museum houses a wide variety of art and offers free admission. Explore the downtown Dallas area and later catch a show at the AT&T Performing Arts Center.
No visit to Dallas would be complete without a barbecue meal. While there is heated debate about which restaurant has the best BBQ, any pit you choose is sure to be a winner. Unlike other styles of barbeque, Texas BBQ tends to have a smokier flavor and less seasonings and sauces.
Roam the city and find your new favorite hangout. The weather in Dallas is conducive to an outdoor lifestyle, so pack your sunscreen and enjoy the city.
