Downtown
The chief focus of downtown Fort Worth is Sundance Square, a leafy, red-brick-paved fourteen-block area of shops, restaurants, and bars between First and Sixth streets, ringed by glittering skyscrapers and pervaded with a genuine enthusiasm for the town's rich history. Filling the block bounded by Commerce, Calhoun, Fourth, and Fifth streets, the Bass Performance Hall (free tours Sat 10:30am, www.basshall.com) is a showpiece for the district. It's a breathtaking building that recalls the great opera houses of Europe, and it is fronted by angels blowing golden trumpets. Elsewhere, notice the trompe-l'oeil murals – especially the Chisholm Trail mural on Third Street between Main and Houston.
