Attractions
Dallas may not be near the ocean, but it has plenty of fish. The Dallas World Aquarium, located in Downtown, features more than 85 thousand gallons of saltwater and marine life from around the world. From beautiful panoramic views of coral life to the displays with live animals spanning the earth, this is truly a unique experience. For a chronicle of the life, legacy and assassination of President John F. Kennedy, be sure to check out the Sixth Floor Museum. There you will discover documentary films and photographs, plus artifacts from the November 22, 1963 event that shocked the nation. The Goss-Michael Collection is an excellent gallery to visit and appreciate artwork reflecting new and emerging creative methods of world-renowned British contemporary artists. Owned by Kenny Goss and his pop-star partner, George Michael, the Goss-Michael Collection features work from their personal collection. If you enjoy a symphony of sound, then don’t miss the The Women’s Chorus of Dallas and the most recorded men’s chorus in the world, the Turtle Creek Chorale.
