1. Fair Park

This is a great place to go on a nice spring day or when the weather isn't too terrible in the summer. This park hosts events year round so anytime you want to go I'm sure there is some type of event going on. It's also where the State Fair is held (which is a Texan must) and just a part of history itself! Seriously if you just want to spend the day outside in some fresh air come here there is so many things to do

2. Perot Museum of Nature and Science

This place is seriously so cool. This is a great place to take the kids on a day off and they absolutely love it. Not only are they learning, but they have fun as well with all the hands on activities. I still have fun going and I'm 18 (still a kid though lol). This was one of my favorite places to go as a kid, and a museum in Dallas that you definitely want to experience.

3. Bishop Arts District

This is by far one of my favorite places to visit in the area. It's an historical part of Dallas that makes a perfect area to get some cute pictures with art all around. You can simply take a stroll, grab a bite to eat, or there is lots of shopping. If you're looking for a sweet bite I highly recommend Emporium Pies (seriously the best) and if you're looking for a lunch or dinner spot you can't go wrong with Dallas Grilled Cheese Company or Eno's Pizza Tavern.

4. Sablon Chocolate Lounge

Okay this one is a total foodie, but completely to die for. The craziest desserts and these are the ones that will satisfy any sweet tooth or craving. Seriously so good and worth the drive.

5. Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens

This is one of the most beautiful places in Texas! You could spend hours upon hours here and still not see it all. It is 66 acres of flowers and plants. Personally I would say it's best to go in the fall or spring since it's outside and definitely too hot in the summer while not a ton of alive plants in the winter. I went in the fall and absolutely loved it because it was decorated with pumpkins, and a bunch of fall colors. This is a must!!
