### Summary

* Fort Worth, Texas, known as "Cowtown," has a rich Western heritage and vibrant city life.
* Visit Fort Worth for the Stockyards, Sundance Square, Panther Island, Water Gardens, Zoo, and Botanic Garden.
* The city offers diverse experiences, showcasing art, history, nature, and cowboy culture.

[There's a small Texas town for every traveler type](https://www.thetravel.com/small-towns-to-visit-in-texas-for-every-traveler-type/), but Fort Worth is the ultimate spot for history buffs. This cowboy town is the fifth-largest city in Texas, with many hotels, restaurants, bars, museums, and shops to suit everyone's taste. The picturesque Sundance Square and [the historic Fort Worth Stockyards](https://www.thetravel.com/why-visit-fort-worth-stockyards-texas/) are at the heart of it all.

Whether visiting the city with family or on a weekend getaway with your partner, [there is so much to do and see in Fort Worth](https://www.thetravel.com/ultimate-travel-guide-to-fort-worth-things-to-do/) that most people won't have time to see it all, including entertainment venues for nightlife, outdoor adventures, an all-day shopping spree, or kicking back under umbrellas while watching the kids having fun on the plaza.

If you haven't heard, Fort Worth is the home of the roaming cowboy, so it has been said. Yes, you'll find cowgirls and cowboys in the city, but they're really _everywhere_ in Texas, but maybe more so here because of the popular stockyards. Find a weekend with a festival, and you'll get everything out of your trip to Cowtown, including [the experience of being a cowboy for the day in Fort Worth](https://www.thetravel.com/you-can-experience-being-a-full-fledged-cowboy-in-fort-worth/)!

I was born in Fort Worth many years ago and have never veered too far. I've written many articles on my website, [Texas Travel Talk](http://texastraveltalk.com), about Fort Worth, and I've still got so much more to tell aspiring visitors about this fantastic town. If you're hoping to visit Cowtown anytime soon, as a local, here are seven things I recommend to everyone when visiting Fort Worth.

## 7 Fort Worth Stockyards 

### _The Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District is one of Texas' most popular tourist destinations, thanks to its shopping, dining, entertainment venues, and daily cattle drives._

[Texas is the most walkable US state](https://www.thetravel.com/most-walkable-us-state-texas/), and Fort Worth, often called "Cowtown," is a great example of why. This place will forever be in my heart; whenever friends come to town and ask me where they should go, I always say the Fort Worth Stockyards. It's the perfect place to walk around and see what Fort Worth is all about, and there's so much to do and see in this area.

E. Exchange St. is lined with western wear shops, upscale boutiques, bars, and restaurants. Be sure to cross Main Street to W. Exchange St. to shop at the General Store for Texas souvenirs and the famous boot store, M.L. Leddy. Mule Alley is the latest trend in the Stockyards. Don't miss it.

Traffic stops, and spectators stand on both sides of E. Exchange Street to wait for the herd to come through, with real cowboys steering them down the road. The daily cattle drive happens twice daily, at 11:30 am & 4:00 pm, and is a site to see, especially if you've never seen a Longhorn. Afterward, check out the livestock exchange building and the stables and get your photo taken on a live Longhorn for only $10\. Kids will love it.

Be sure to stop in at Billy Bob's Texas for a mechanical bull ride, grab a beer, and peruse the souvenirs.

Parking is no longer free. Plan on spending $15 on parking for the day.

The historic Sundance Square is a vast part of downtown Fort Worth. It offers many attractions, including the Bass Performance Hall, Worthington Renaissance Hotel Fort Worth, Sid Richardson Museum, the beautiful Courthouse, theaters, many high-end shops, and plenty of restaurants, all within walking distance.

After a day in the plaza, you can sit and relax while marveling at the water fountain, the Chisholm Trail mural, and live music. If you visit during the holidays, the plaza is all decked out in red and green, and a visit to Santa Claus is a sure thing. Dress warm because Mr. Claus will be outdoors.

**Parking at Sundance Square:** Find free parking at Garage 3 at 345 W. 3rd St. Paid and valet parking is also available.

## 5 Panther Island

 If you're visiting downtown Fort Worth and want some sunshine, I recommend Panther Island. It's a 3-to-4-minute drive from the downtown Tarrant County Courthouse. It's one of the best outdoor areas in Dallas-Forth Worth for events, and you'll get the beautiful downtown Fort Worth skyline as a backdrop.

I recommend going when there is no event, as it can get hectic. I would refrain from bringing the kids to some of the events there. Kayak the river or get your legs working on a paddle boat—either way, the water is lovely. Hopefully, you'll find some shade.

However, this is the place if you're looking for an outdoor event or live music. It's all outdoors, so be prepared. Check out [Panther Island](https://pantherislandpavilion.com/) before you go.

Parking is free when no event is booked.

The Fort Worth Water Gardens is in downtown Fort Worth, adjacent to the Fort Worth Convention Center and directly across the street from the Omni Fort Worth Hotel. This free attraction attracts many visitors and their families to enjoy the sounds of the water splashing down in the pools from above the waterfalls.

It's a serene feeling as you walk around to see it all. Many visitors find shade in the park to relax and take it easy - something perfect for a hot day. Swimming or wading is prohibited, but you might get a splash from the cascading waters.

You can get two-hour free parking at 250 Lancaster Street.

| Best Time of Year to Visit: | Any time of year, but spring and fall are not so hot. |
| Recommend Not To Miss:      | Relax and listen to the cascading waters.             |

Welcome to the number one zoo in Texas. My family never tires of visiting here. There is always something new that we may have missed or never seen before. I don't think I've ever seen the whole zoo on one trip, but we try.

I ensure we know what's most important to us before getting too tired. It's usually the lions and the monkeys, but believe it or not, my favorite thing is to ride the train around the zoo. You get to see so much more of the zoo, and it costs very little to ride it.

At the end of October, families dress up in costumes and head to the zoo for Boo At The Zoo. There are stations throughout the zoo that hand out Halloween candy and fun tinker toys for the kids. The event is free, but a zoo admissions fee is required.

Half-price admission on Wednesdays. Parking is $5.

The beautiful 120-acre [Fort Worth Botanic Garden](https://fwbg.org/) is Texas' oldest public botanic garden. It comprises over twenty specialty gardens, a forest boardwalk, a water garden, a tropical paradise garden, and several gardens highlighting plants native to north central Texas. Kids will love exploring the Japanese Garden, the Rose Garden, and the kid-friendly nature center.

Springtime is our favorite time to visit because it's not hot, and the spring wildflowers are abundant. It's open every day of the week from 8 am to 6 pm.

Parking is free except when there is an event.

Visiting the Fort Worth Cultural District would be the ultimate Texas trip for history buffs who want to see the museums of contemporary art and Texas history in Fort Worth.

This area is home to five museums: The [Kimbell Art Museum](https://kimbellart.org/) (home to the only Michelangelo in the Western hemisphere), the [Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth](https://www.themodern.org/) (best design building in Texas), the [Fort Worth Museum of Science and History](https://www.fwmuseum.org/) (fun the entire family - it's a kid's museum at heart), the [Amon Carter Museum of American Art](https://www.cartermuseum.org/) (explores the diversity and complexity of American creativity over the last 200 years), and the [National Cowgirl Museum And Hall of Fame ](https://www.cowgirl.net/)(celebrates the historical women of the American West).

Along with the above, Dickies Arena, Will Rogers Coliseum, the Fort Worth Omni Theater, and the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens are located in this area. Plus, there are a dozen restaurants and shops along the way. I don't think anyone will get bored in this district of Fort Worth.
