Dallas' new slogan is "Live Large. Think Big". It sums up perfectly this city that was built on the attitude that all things are possible. It started out as a trading post in the 1840s, growing and growing to become the No. 1 business centre in the U.S. Millions of business and leisure travellers take cheap flights to Dallas each year for meetings, conferences, and to sample the city's exciting culinary scene, lively arts and entertainment districts and superb shopping.
Dallas is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to professional sports too. There are three major teams based in Dallas - the Mavericks (NBA) and Stars (NHL) that play at American Airlines Center and the Cowboys (NFL) that call the Texas Stadium home - all followed with passion.
There are more than 400 green spaces in Dallas, but its flagship park is Fair Park. It's a National Historic Landmark, home to museums, performance facilities, a lagoon, North America's biggest Ferris wheel and Big Tex, a 16-metre-tall statue with a 75-gallon hat and size 70 boots who will even say hello.
