Once you get off the elevators you're greeted with a little gift shop that also has snacks and alcoholic beverages. You can stay inside and take in the view or go outside. I was surprised that there really wasn't more robust netting and you can definitely drop your phone from the top so be careful. There wasn't a ton to do up there so I would say a longer visit would be 30 min max unless you partake in the snacks and beverages.

Upon check-in, we were guided to an area where they took complimentary souvenir photos of our group before sending us upstairs. Once upstairs, you have the option to purchase printed photos, or they can send you a link to download your photos digitally. This was a great stop to take in the beautiful views of the city before dinner. They also have a small gift shop with souvenirs to browse. Overall, it was a nice experience and a great addition to our evening.

Walking through Deep Ellum in Dallas, I looked up and there he was--the Traveling Man. Towering…read moreabove the sidewalk, mid-stride, like he was making his way through the neighborhood just like the rest of us. His shiny metal body caught the sunlight, and there was something both futuristic and kind about the way he stood there--one foot forward, a smile on his face, and a little bird perched on his hand like they were old friends. It didn't feel like just a sculpture. It felt like a moment--like he was part of the city, watching over it, maybe even cheering it on. Kids were climbing on the smaller birds at his feet, couples taking selfies, a guy playing guitar on the corner nearby. All of it somehow felt right around him, like he belonged there and always had.

The locomotive transformed into a robot, rising from the ground where three birds stood. There are three different sculptures, which can be viewed as three different parts of the sculpture. 1.Awakening-displays traveling man head emerging from the ground, and it's surrounded by the 3 birds. 2.Waiting on the train-Traveling man is seating on the ground with a guitar, smiling. 3.Walking tall-38ft tall walking man with a bird on his wrist. He is walking to the Deep Ellum train station. Deep Ellum neighborhood developed around the railroad, so there is a deep connection between these two. Easy to stop by and take photo. Pretty cool.

As you stand by them, you can imagine yourself in that moment, reliving the sounds and movement of the cattle. Cattle drives were a common sight throughout Texas and therefore very much part of its history. This is a great place for photos and I even saw a family of ducks going into the water. As I was visiting I saw a few kids climbing onto the cattle. Not sure if that was allowed but there were no signs around that says otherwise. I did read that some of the sculptures do get taken away to be fixed. Overall, it's a must visit. Where else can you see 49 life size sculptures of cattle. Definitely a must see, when in Dallas.

Open space - in downtown Dallas? Believe it…read more Dealey Plaza has a history going all the way back to the founding of this city. There are signs telling about the original trading post on this site. Because it was designated parkland at the beginning, it was not redeveloped as a skyscraper or a freeway, making it an open space in downtown Dallas. It's also one one of the most recognized parks in the country. Not because it's distinctive; it's not. But that day which continues to live in infamy . . . 22 November 1963 . . . President Kennedy was riding in a convertible with his wife, top down, while the crowds cheered . . . suddenly, a shot rang out . . . Dealey Plaza is the park behind the convertible in the Zapruder film. X marks the spot on Elm Street where the fatal bullet hit his skull. A solemn spot. The park is not all about Jack Kennedy, though. When I visited, there was a sign advertising movies in the park. So I'd have to think that Dealey Plaza has other community events too. The east end also has places to sit under mature trees, which is nice on sweltering summers in North Texas. Pretty sculpture. Again, not an unusual park. But it serves an important purpose in the area, has lots of museums nearby, and is itself historically significant.
