Old City Park has a number of historical buildings that you can go through. They have a school, church, bank, newspaper office, blacksmith, farm (live animals), hotel and several homes. At Christmas they have special events including live music with various groups from the DFW area. You can even arrange to eat a meal in one of the homes with your family and group. Some of the homes are quite beautiful and have been restored to their period. There are many skilled craftspeople who you can watch as they make their wares such as the blacksmith and the potter. They also offer horse-drawn wagon rides. Parking is off-site with a bus to transport people back and forth. In my opinion Old City Park is one of the hidden gems of Dallas.
