Historic area of shops and saloons |
131 East Exchange Avenue, Suite 100B North Main and Exchange streets Dallas, TX 76106 +1 817 624 4741 http://www.fortworthstockyards.org |
Once the second-largest cattle market in the world, this area west of downtown has been preserved by The National Historic District for its rich history and architecture. Renovated in 1976, the area contains Western-themed events, shops and saloons. Attractions include the Cowtown Coliseum, home to the annual Southwest Exposition and Livestock show; the Cowtown Opry; and the Tarantula Steam Train. Western and antique shops line the streets once traveled by Butch Cassidy. The area is alive with nightclubs and saloons, a favorite among the locals. Admission price depends on event. Guided walking tours of the historic district are available daily beginning at the Stockyards Station. Review © 2009, Wcities |
