Overall Dallas was surprisingly dull. Most of the downtown area was boring and sometimes even a bit shady. For its size, it is hard to understand why it doesn't feel more vibrant and why there isn't more city life going on. It felt like the kind of city where the downtown area is only used for office buildings, the same old chain restaurants, and some nightlife options. I guess the vast majority of residents live in suburbs outside the city.

Sure, some parts are nicer than others, and I am sure that with some help from locals there would be lots of things to enjoy. But for a visitor that just wants to explore it like other cities, I can not recommend it. And when I came back home and told my colleagues who traveled the US extensively that I visited Dallas, they simply asked "Why?" :)
