One of Arlington's most historic sites is the Fielder House. It is still standing quite impressively, as it has a wealth of stories and history that have echoed across the years. The house has the distinction of being one of the earliest brick homes in the city that was equipped with an impressive set of amenities that included electrical lighting, central heating, a hot water system and indoor plumbing. Walking through this historic attraction is like traversing time, so take a little time to explore one of Arlington's true artifacts that has withstood the test of time.

Stuck at the office and need a little breathing room? While you may not be able to travel to the outskirts of town for an escape to nature, you can always head to the centrally located Brantley Hinshaw Park and sit on one of the benches or stroll one of the walking paths to clear your head while you take in some outdoor beauty. This park is also a great place to relax after work, too, as the family will enjoy the playgrounds, basketball court, spray pool and great scenery. Also, there is ample lighting if your family outing goes a little past sunset.

With the legacy of the Dallas Cowboys and the Texas Rangers looming large over the entire city of Arlington, it's not surprising that an entire museum specifically dedicated to sports art is such a popular venue. Reputed to be the nation's largest art gallery devoted to sports, the Hall of Fame Museum is a unique and awe-inspiring museum featuring original pieces as well as lithographs, statues, uniforms, autographs and various other types of memorabilia that even the most causal sports fan will find impressive. This impressive facility is housed within the Rangers Ball park and it offers a comprehensive look at the team's origins, triumphs, trials, and the people who played vital roles in the evolution of this highly regarded baseball team. The various exhibits include rare photos, memorabilia, team uniforms and audio and video presentations.
