Description:
|
STOCKYARDS. The stockyards of Fort Worth once bustled with cattle, and saloons lined the streets, offering respite to herders and passersby. Now part of a historic district, the old barns and pens house shops, museums and restaurants and help preserve the town's colorful heritage. Be sure to check out some of the most notable sites and businesses, like Billy Bob's of Texas (a nightclub), The White Elephant Saloon, Cow Town Coliseum and Stockyards Station. The visitor center on Exchange Avenue (817-626-7921) provides maps and detailed information about the area, along with schedules for walking tours. |
