Sights you mustn't miss
• Dallas is sports-mad, and catching the world-famous Dallas Cowboys in action is always a historic NFL experience. The Sixth Floor Museum, dedicated to the assassination of President John F Kennedy, is set in the exact place from which the fatal shots were fired. Lovers of contemporary sculpture will enjoy the Nasher Sculpture Centre, and the Perot Museum of Nature and Science is fun for adults and kids alike. Timing your visit to the autumn Texas State Fair reveals Texas and its Wild West history in all its riotous glory.
Fun things to do
• White Rock Lake gives a welcome escape from crowded city streets, and the lake’s still waters are believed to be haunted at night. Sandy Lake Amusement Park, a favourite with residents for more than 40 years, has picnic areas as well as rides and arcades, and rodeo shows take place regularly at the Mesquite Championship Rodeo grounds. If you’re addicted to golf, you’re in exactly the right place to sample one of the many excellent courses in the around the city. For nightlife, Deep Ellum district is trendy for its dance clubs, bars and music venues.
Wining and dining
• Steakhouses, BBQ joints, grills and TexMex eateries are all Dallas favourites, based on its history as a cow town in a far-southern ranch state. The city boasts even more restaurants than New York itself, with world cuisines as well as American foods available at all price levels. Downtown is the dining hub, popular for fusion foods as well as Asian, Mexican and Italian eateries and all-American meat-heavy offerings. Fresh seafood comes into its own in sushi houses, and old-school pub grub is found in the city’s Design District.
Day trips
• The pretty, old-fashioned town square at Denton, half an hour from Dallas, is a refreshing change from high-rise glamour, and fans of the TV series Dallas won’t want to miss the chance to tour South Fork Ranch. Lake Texoma, an hour’s drive away on the border with Oklahoma, gives fishing, fresh air and endless vistas. The infamous Waco, an hour to the south, hosts the Texan Rangers Hall of Fame and the Dr Pepper Museum.
