Dallas is a metropolitan area filled with urban parks in places as diverse as downtown business districts and forested areas just outside the city limits. Though almost all of them have standard amenities like footpaths, benches, and grassy areas perfect for picnics, others are full-featured parks with museums, cultural centers, and concert venues on the grounds. Most facilities are open year-round with the exception of the city’s splash parks and outdoor pools.
