Fort Worth keeps the old cowboy spirit of Texas alive and is known as the place 'Where the West Begins.' It mixes western history with modern museums and fun.
You can watch real cowboys drive longhorn cattle down the street at the Fort Worth Stockyards, visit the Fort Worth Zoo, or splash around at the Fort Worth Water Gardens. The Cowgirl Hall of Fame museum is here too.
At the Fort Worth Stockyards you can see a real cattle drive twice a day, with cowboys guiding big Texas longhorns. There are rodeos, western shops, and boot stores to explore.
The Fort Worth Zoo is one of the best in the country, with elephants, gorillas, and more. The city also has a science museum with a dome theater that feels like a space adventure.
