Experience the epicenter of cultural and entertainment activities in the heart of downtown Dallas at Fair Park. Originally built for the 1936 Texas World's Fair, this 227-acre park is home to many of Dallas' most unique and highly-specialized museums, sports facilities, and educational programs. Whether you're interested in the African-American Museum, the Museum of the American Railroad, the Museum of Nature & Science, or TI Founders IMAX Theater, there's something for everyone to enjoy, and let's not forget about the Dallas Aquarium at Fair Park, The Hall of State, Texas Discovery Gardens, and South Dallas Cultural Center, all of which make Fair Park a must-visit destination for locals and tourists alike.

If you're a fan of cutting-edge films, videos, and documentaries, you won't want to miss the annual four-day Dallas VideoFest every Fall at several venues. The festival is open to professional and non-professional filmmakers and specializes in independent, alternative, and non-commercial media. You'll  see hard-to-find works that are rarely seen on television, in movie theaters, or elsewhere, despite their artistic excellence and cultural and social relevance. It's a great opportunity to discover new and exciting voices in the world of film and media.

Are you looking for an adventure? Look no further than Adventure Landing. This ultra-modern and sophisticated city is Texas's No. 1 visitor and leisure destination and for good reason. Test your driving skills on the twisting quarter-mile Adventure Speedway Go-Karts track, challenge your friends to a laser tag battle, gather your friends to play at the arcade with over 100 interactive games, join in on the three uniquely themed 18-hole miniature golf courses, or make a splash with the bumper boats. And if you're looking to hone your baseball or softball skills, the batting cages are perfect for individual and team practice.

Instead of just looking at the fighter aircraft on display at the Cavanaugh Flight Museum, enhance your experience by taking a ride and planning a trip there.

You can also ride in some unique helicopters and other flying contraptions. The Cavanaugh Flight Museum is a fantastic educational organization that is dedicated to preserving America's history and promoting aviation study. With a focus on restoring, operating, and maintaining vintage aircraft and collecting materials related to aviation history, this museum is a must-visit for any aviation enthusiast or history buff.
