Dallas - A Guide to Downtown - Travel Bucket List Ideas

[@Erikthetravelguy]

I love Dallas. So much to do in that city. I was shocked at how art-centric it was. I'm really looking forward to getting back. Great video!

[@UltimateBucketList]

It really was! I didn't do too much of the museums, but I'd happily go back just to do it all again. Thanks!

[@GSM92]

I like the green building

[@brittoncoil2518]

What’s is there to do here? Haven’t found anything yet

[@darkwisp7434]

I’m in Houston

[@SeanCarterCFH]

@@brittoncoil2518 All sports and theme parks are in Arlington. No, there is no bus there so good luck checking THAT out if you're flying in. Basically we have a ton of artwork seemingly perfectly meshed in with utter hopelessness and the homeless population. We have an Amber alert every 27 minutes, gun shots are very frequent and close no matter WHERE in Dallas you reside. Unless you live in the richest part, which they keep secret from us poor people. Can't even direct you there, not joking AT all. Run! Just run.

[@hypershock0762]

This is so cool. I visited this summer for a week, and I recognize so many things. Also the giant eyeball kind of has a story around it. Some architect wanted to build something, city officials told him it would be an eyesore. He went to an artist, made the big ass eyeball, and told the city officials to stick it basically. It’s private property, too lol.

[@UltimateBucketList]

Ha! That's why there's a giant eyeball in Dallas?! I didn't know that, thanks!

[@bashb2583]

i always wondered what the reason was lol

[@andygross706]

Flew down there a few years ago trim Seattle... Took my brother to a Dallas Stars game for his birthday. A interesting way they sang the National Anthem was that no one sang along. Completely silent, except for the person who was there to perform it. Everyone in the arena were standing in attention, saluting, and others with their hand over their heart. However, the only time they would blurt out during the anthem is the two times the word "Stars" would come up. Not going to lie, it startled the heck out of key. A humble experience and nice rendition of their way they sing the National anthem.

[@UltimateBucketList]

Oh really, I didn't notice. Some people sang along and I did notice the Stars thing, but some other NHL teams do that with select words (Winnipeg's one is annoying as hell).

[@UltimateBucketList]

Oh I totally agree with that. The city is clean, the people are nice and the food was amazing! It's definitely worth visiting!

[@troylarkins2096]

Nice video. But seeing so many references to guns was kind of unusual. I live in Dallas, and even though our family has two shotguns, a long rifle, and two handguns, we never carry them around. We only use them for target shooting at the gun ranges. From an insider's perspective I'd recommend visitors check out the Arts District, Fair Park, Deep Ellum, the Bishop Arts District, and the Uptown neighborhoods of Dallas. There are also many more neighborhood based attractions, but unless you know where to go it can be difficult to find without a car. The aforementioned spots can be accessed using the City's Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) buses, trains, trolley, or D-Link bus. Keep up the good work!

[@UltimateBucketList]

Thank Troy. As someone who comes from a country where almost all guns are illegal to own if you're a civilian, it's strange to me that there's such an open-carry policy - and it was pretty obvious who was packing. And yes, there's plenty of attractions that I didn't mention, but the transport in Dallas seems to be pretty good! :)

[@thomasmoore9421]

Dallas love field airport is closer airport to Dallas. There's also a metro line that runs from DFW (also goes by love field) and goes through downtown. Though having a car could be easier depending on what your plans are.

[@UltimateBucketList]

Probably yeah, but most people would probably come in via DFW. Having a car is definitely easier. I usually just use public transit when I'm visiting places, but for Dallas I get a car.

[@thomasmoore9421]

@@UltimateBucketList Since DAL is only served by Southwest, Delta and Alaska; a majority of people will most likely use DFW. I don't like to drive and can't really justify the expense of a vehicle, so walking and public transit is key even if it limits my options.

It’s a pain but you can get to DT Dallas from DFW Airport on DART’s Orange Line. Ride the TexRail from the airport to DT Fort Worth
