Dallas was established in 1840/41 as a small trading settlement on the banks of the Trinity River. Named after George Dallas, the vice president of the United States (late 1840s), Dallas has ballooned into a major regional city with a metropolitan population of more than 3 million people. Like many other early towns in America, the growth of Dallas didn't mushroom until the rail network hit town in the mid 1870s.
Topping the Texas charts for both business and leisure travel, Dallas offers visitors a unique blend of Southwestern warmth, cosmopolitan flair, Old West charm and modern sophistication.
