Once you arrive in Fort Worth, you know you are in Texas. You stand a little taller in your boots and sit a little straighter in your saddle.
Over the course of the last 150 years, what started as an Army outpost has blossomed into a sophisticated, cultural city that celebrates its authentic Western heritage while embracing the 21st century.
No visit to Texas is complete without a stop at the legendary Stockyards National Historic District. Unique attractions such as the Fort Worth Herd twice-daily cattle drive thrill visitors year-round. Top country music performers play the stage at Billy Bob's Texas, the "World's Largest Honky-Tonk," and live rodeo takes place every weekend at Cowtown Coliseum, home to the world's original indoor rodeo. Shopping for handcrafted cowboy boots, hats, clothing and souvenirs is abundant in the Stockyards.
You'll also see how Fort Worth's Western heritage influenced its cultural side, too. Cattle barons and oil barons with one-of-a-kind art collections made significant contributions to the art community touching the lives of countless locals and visitors alike.
Come see for yourself why Fort Worth is known as the city "where the West begins."
