Reviewed By georgehC6481UU - Fort Worth, United States

We've seen several different events at Bass Hall. Everything from The Nutcracker, to Mannheim Steamroller. This venue is amazing. It is truly a classy place with an intimate connection to the artists that perform. They have a varied and eclectic mix of shows while paying homage to the classics. We are never disappointed. The venue has great parking near by and is a short walk to sundance square. It is easy to make a night or afternoon of it, by enjoying a nice dinner near by or capping off the evening with an adult beverage.They have valet parking and a store inside usually themed to the show being presented.

Silver Leaf Cigar Lounge

Reviewed By sherrycat - Burnsville, United States

We walked from the Hampton Inn to this great little Gem. Molly helped my husband in the humidor, choosing an Edge Corojo cigar, one of his favorites. We sat at the bar and enjoyed our smoke, Maker's Mark and glass of wine. What a fun place. We met the manager Jake, who was personable and enjoyable. I sooooo apologize for forgetting the bartender's name. I think it was Bill? He was so nice and we so enjoyed picking his brain about local stuff. A great local place. And for the people complaining about smelling like smoke, REALLY???? It is a cigar bar. Loved it and would return next time in town.

Sundance Square is a hidden gem. As you drive by, if you blink you may miss it. Best option is to park in the Sundance square Garage across from the Bass Performance Hall and walk approx 1.5 blocks to get to Sundance Square - Very relaxing to just sit and enjoy the ambiance, especially at night when the lights are on/changing, the water fountain is going and the buildings around you light up. you might get lucky and even get some live music while you are there.

Fort Worth Water Gardens

The Fort Worth Water Gardens is a beautiful and refreshing oasis. Designed by Phillip Johnson, the Fort Worth Water Gardens is an architectural and engineering marvel to be enjoyed any time of the year. Visitors can experience a variety of water features as they wander through this relaxing urban park.

Reviewed By TravelFoodLoveIt - Dallas, United States

This little gem was found while walking away from a conference this spring. It is a large outdoor water garden with use of stone, trees, cement, sculpture and water to create playful art. It reminded me a little of Frank Lloyd Wright style in the use of these natural elements to create beauty. This is a area that you can enjoy day or night and with adults or kids. Their are interesting features, and often birds taking part o the water features, the kids found it nice to have a little area to stretch their legs while the parents enjoyed the sites. I have been here twice, once with kids and once with spouse, a great place for a little peace and interesting scenery.
