24 hours to kill in downtown Dallas

Farmers Market breakfast at Tacos la Ventana and walk around a bit, not much farming but plenty of market.

Go over to AT&T Discovery District. There is a food hall with a few different options, and Pegasus City Brewing is right beside and the historic Adolphus Hotel is a great photo op.

If you are feeling artsy, head to the arts district with DMA, Nasher, and Crow Museum of Asian Art. Nasher is my favorite but not free unless it's the first Saturday of the month.

Then, head over to West End if only to see where JFK was shot and there is also an amazing Holocaust Museum, but it is some heavy stuff.

Finish the day either in Victory Park, Klyde Warren Park or Deep Ellum (but recommend you are out by 10).

Can also easily grab a train on DART using the Orange line or Green line to Victory Station right next to the AAC for a much shorter walk to the Katy Trail & ice house (especially in this heat)

I didn't realize the Katy Trail terminated just north of the AAC. That's a great idea.

Dallas World Aquarium

Better idea. Go to oak cliff stand on top of your car and tell the N word as loud as you can.

NightMgr@reddit

OH! I thought you were going on a killing spree.

BenjaminKatz@reddit

Klyde Warren, Eyeball, reunion tower, Perot, nasher, uber to arboretum/Greenville/bishop arts

Grab some great food and craft beer at Four Corners Brewery they have Pacheco Burgers and Tacos place inside. Not sure if they're still doing the sponsor pop up for SpongeBob Crabby Burgers still, but sounds fun to try.

Get on the green line and go to the fair 🤷🏾‍♀️. That's always my favorite thing to do. You save five dollars when you have a Dart ticket and the train let's off right at the front gate

dchirs@reddit

Nasher and Dallas Museum of Art.
Klyde Warren Park
Winspear / Meyerson / Wyly performance @ night
American Airlines Center for Mavs / Stars game
Revolver tacos or BBQ in Deep Ellum (+ walking around)
Cocktails at Statler Hilton or Adolphus Hotel

I’m relatively new to Dallas so I don’t know any hidden gems or anything, but you should walk around Dealey Plaza where JFK was assassinated. Maybe try to see if you can check out Reunion Tower, too. If you’re feeling a little fancy pants maybe check out Monarch for dinner and/or Catbird for drinks in Thompson Dallas. I hope you have fun however you choose to spend it!
