About Fort Worth
Fort Worth originally began as an army outpost in 1849. This city, much like Texas a whole, has been entrenched in near constant battles from within the U.S. as well as with its southern neighbor, Mexico. Today, it is a city rich with historic relevance that attracts many visitors year round.
It must be noted that Fort Worth is not as hot all year round as some of the more southern cities are. It does get cold during the winter months and is prone to regular threats of tornadoes.
This city has a reputation for being the Wild Wild West, rich with cowboys, taverns, and rodeos. While this is part of the historical beauty of the region, the city today also offers a very rich cultural and artistic community.
The Western history of the city is definitely embraced through many historical museums, such as the historic structures still standing at Log Cabin Village, and the remaining ranches which sprawl around the city, still operating as years in the past. Visitors can explore the Heritage Trails, the Grapevine Vintage Railroad, or see many stock shows and horseback riding events.
Yet, there is a balance to all of this historical cowboy activity. There are many luxury hotels that grace the city, and visitors can enjoy fine dining and art museums just as readily as they can the coliseum or a dude ranch.
Fort Worth is definitely a modern urban environment that has managed to keep up with the times without losing site of its humble beginnings.
