Holiday fun can be had at the Dallas Heritage Village! They are open each day, 9 am to 2 pm. But, consider going from 6 to 9 pm on Thursdays or Saturdays. Thousands of candles light the paths and the structures in the Village. It is quite beautiful. There is music, storytellers, a food truck, Santa, blacksmithing demos. All outdoors. For the low, low cost of $10 admission for adults.
Shown here: the Renner School building, c 1888, against the backdrop of downtown Dallas. Buildings in the Village date to 1845 – 1907.
