Fort Worth General Information Fort Worth, the twin city to Dallas, couldn’t be more different. Contrasted with Dallas’s glitzy, sophisticated inhabitants, Fort Worth, or “Cowtown” is still flavored by its rich western heritage, a place where cowboys, gunfights and cattle drives were standard. But Fort Worth of today has also forged an identity as a major cultural center. It boasts a world-class arts scene, an amazing variety of museums and cultural destinations. Not to be missed is the Fort Worth Stockyards that includes the world’s only daily cattle drive. Also fun is the Fort Worth Zoo, the Texas Motor Speedway, or the Nancy Lee and Perry R Bass Performance Hall. Living in this city is surrounding yourself with gracious parks, casual sophistication combined with small-town charm (despite a population of more than half a million people). While in the late 1800’s, Fort Worth was a major stop for cowboys on the legendary cattle trails, today Fort Worth is a major stop on tour itineraries. This city knows how to deliver a unique mix of Old West history, top attractions, and fun activities. This is a great city to call home or visit for the experience of a lifetime. |
