FORT WORTH, TEXAS
Best Time to Visit Texas
Fort Worth is just 30 miles west of Dallas. Known as "Cowtown", Fort Worth still reflects its Western heritage and its linkage to cattle trade. But it offers much more than just a recreation of the old West. With a more relaxing pace than Dallas, Fort Worth has excellent museums, food (Fort Worth is the capital of steak), shopping and amusement.
