I have one
day to spend in Fort Worth, what do you suggest I do to get a feel of the
city?
I would recommend going to the Stockyards area of Fort Worth.
Once the livestock industry's trading center, the
Stockyards are now a tourist-oriented shopping and entertainment
district. Cowboys on horseback roam the area, answering tourist question
and posing for pictures. Twice a day, they drive a small
herd of Texas longhorns around the block. It'll feel like you're
in a real western town.
How do I get to Ft Worth from DFW via
public transportation? I there a station close to
downtown?
There is a shuttle bus that goes from the airport South
Parking lot to the Centerport train station where you can pick up
the TRE commuter train that runs between Dallas and Fort Worth.
From there, take the train to the Ft Worth-ITC station which is
walking distance of downtown. Fort Worth is a very user-friendly
city with lots of attractions all easily accessible to public
transportation.
As a New Yorker visiting Ft Worth, Is
there anything I should know about the city and it's
people?
Well, it may be a bit of culture shock for you when you
first see what we affectionately call our little "cowtown",
but I think you'll find Ft Worth a little laid back and the locals
to be very friendly and polite. So don't be surprised if a
stranger strikes up a conversation with
you.
...more questions and answers will be posted once we
get more local resident volunteers. please check
back.
