A vision of glass-sided skyscrapers, glitz and glamour, Dallas is the ninth largest city in the States. With great shopping and dining, the city is a thriving tourist destination. And as a major center for big business and big banking, Dallas lives up to its state's reputation for living large.
Dallas' central business district boasts amazing architecture, important historic sights and world-class shopping. Notable landmarks include Dealey Plaza, where John F. Kennedy was assassinated, and the 15-story Plaza of the Americas shopping center. Just north of Downtown is the Arts District, where you'll find cultural landmarks like the Dallas Museum of Art and the Meyerson Symphony Center.
A quick trolley ride from Downtown, the McKinney Avenue area is known for its upscale restaurants and shops, as well as its chic art galleries and lively dance clubs. Whether you're in the mood for dining on escargot at a fancy French bistro or catching the latest exhibition at the McKinney Avenue Contemporary Museum, you're sure to find something to your liking.
While many big businesses have offices in the Dallas North - Galleria area, it's certainly not all work and no play around here. The Dallas Galleria Mall is home to more than 200 upscale shops, a selection of fine restaurants and an ice-skating rink.
Average summer temperatures in Dallas hover around 81 degrees Fahrenheit, with the highest reaching beyond 95. The lowest temperatures happen in January. Rain is generally scarce in Dallas, but humidity is high throughout the year, particularly in the morning. Enjoy sunny skies all year round!
