Fort Worth is the rare city that celebrates both cowboys and culture in big Texas style. Established in 1849 as a rough frontier fort town, Fort Worth began as the dusty and lawless home to soldiers, frontiersmen and outlaws. You will find that Western heritage preserved and celebrated through their Stockyards National Historic District and a lifestyle deeply steeped in its sense of pioneering pride. Today, as the 16th largest city in the US and one of the fastest growing cities in the country, Fort Worth has grown into the cultural destination of the Southwest, boasting such recognized names as the Kimbell Art Museum, Modern Art Museum and Sundance Square and Bass Hall.

Other top attractions include the Fort Worth Zoo which is ranked as one of the top in the nation  and Sundance Square, downtown’s energetic, 35-block area, which offers many superb choices for dining, shopping and entertainment. Also see billions of dollars being printed right before your eyes at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing’s Western Currency Facility! These are just a few of the many things that Fort Worth has to offer.
