Sightseeing

Sightseeing Overview
Dallas’ most unfortunate distinction for more than 40 years has been that of owning the place where one of the most popular presidents in history was killed, so it’s not surprising that one of the most popular sites to visit in the city is Dealey Plaza and the Sixth Floor Museum, below. But there are also many happier places to visit downtown, the heartbeat of this vibrant commerce center and home of the Arts District. The Dallas Museum of Art is the perfect place to begin a cultural exploration, followed by a tour of the Nasher Sculpture Center. Considering taking in a concert at the Meyerson Symphony Center or a touring Broadway show at the Majestic Theater.
