The Metroplex/Outside Fort Worth
The areas surrounding Fort Worth include many other worthwhile places to visit, but you'll want to rent a car to get around comfortably. The American Airlines C.R. Smith Museum is located southwest of Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, the Fort Worth Nature Center and Refuge is located ten miles (16 kilometers) northwest of downtown Fort Worth, and the Vintage Flying Museum at Meacham International Airport, offers weekend hangar tours of a vintage B-17 bomber. Located East of Fort Worth in Arlington are several opportunities for family-oriented entertainment, including Hurricane Harbor water park, directly across the street from Six Flags Over Texas amusement park. For sports fans, there is also the Ballpark in Arlington, home of the Texas Rangers American League baseball team. For a piece of Texas history, visit Grapevine, located east of Fort Worth on Highway 114. Deemed the oldest settlement in Tarrant County and named for the mustang grapes growing wild in the area, it is the official home of the Texas Wine and Grape Growers Association.
