Dallas is a vast city, both in its pride, and its size. The city lies along the Trinity River in north east Texas, and is one of the largest cities in the country, the home to well over 1 million people who would all say that they would not want to live anywhere else.
Dallas has been at the forefront of the American psyche for as long as the country has existed, a city that has given the country some of its greatest moments, and one of its worst. Dallas was the first city in America where the professional football team got professional support in the form of cheerleaders, and also the place where JFK was assassinated in November 1963 in Dealey Plaza.
Dallas has also provided the backdrop for dozens of movies including "Logan's Run", "Robocop", and "Slap her She's French", not to mention the long running soap opera that came to define the greed and glory era of the 1980s, "Dallas".
The city thrives on its image as a forward thinking and dynamic city, but Dallas is also a place where you can find time to relax and enjoy yourself in one of the many large parks around the city, or wander through one of Dallas' enormous shopping malls or museums, before spending you evenings at one of the buzzing bars and nightclubs in the downtown area and dancing until dawn.
