Dallas is the most mythical city in Texas, with a past and present rich in all the stuff American legends are made of. Recently it has been made particularly famous by the Dallas Cowboys football team and the long-running Dallas television series. Dallas is endlessly occupied with growth and status; it's a city known for its commerce, its restaurants and its shopping. Simply wandering around the skyscrapers of the downtown area soaking in the oil wealth make son giddy. Try and make it to the Sixth Floor Museum, a thoughtful, comprehensive tribute to the life, death and legacy of John F Kennedy. The Conspiracy Museum suggests that Kennedy's assassination was a coup d'état attempt. The Dallas Arts District, a 60 acre section north of downtown is dedicated to the fine and performing arts. Here you can find landmarks such as the dramatic Morton H Meyerson Symphony Center; the Trammel Crow Center Pavilion, with exhibition and performance spaces; and the Dallas Theater Center. Fair Park has a couple of great museums: the hands-on Science Place is great for the whole family with attractions that include robotic dinosaurs, a medical gallery featuring a human brain and real beating heart, a planetarium and IMAX theater. The African-American Museum is one of the best museums of its kind, with exhibits detailing the art and rich history of native Africans from pre-slavery Africa through to the present day.
