Great way to enjoy a summer or fall night. Take your chair, picnic supper (no glass), go early and enjoy a beautiful evening under the stars listening to some of the best music around.

Tails and Trails Dog Park

Reviewed By OfficialBestOf - Tucson, United States

I travel tons with my dogs(kids) all over the country and this is truly one of the best. Half of this is in the woods with nice trails and benches and the other half is more like a typical dog park area, all being very large as is the style in Texas! The dogs love this park and it also has paved trails next to the park that you can walk if you prefer that. Its located right behind the animal shelter for Arlington and there is a library also right there.

The most amazing antique mall in DFW. Always new and exciting things to buy and the prices are amazing. I've purchased several unique gifts...if you're looking for antiques and items that are not ordinary you should drop in. Vintage T-Shirts, tables, chairs, sterling silver, poke'mon, baseball and football trading cards, knives and swords, home decorations and tons of other things.

Richard Greene Linear Park

Reviewed By roadrunner_in_texas - The Woodlands, United States

We simply happened upon this park while exploring Arlington! Just outside the AT&T stadium is this beautiful place to walk, with ducks to feed, and bridges to cross over or go under! Right nearby is the Miller Tavern and some other pubs to eat/drink at as the sun goes down! The park is great for kids of all ages 0-100!
