A new report from Travel + Leisure has named Fort Worth as one of the 50 best places to travel in 2024 – it's listed under 'big-city thrills,' along with Bangkok, Istanbul and Cleveland.

The city received high marks for its upscale hotels – like the newly open Crescent Hotel – and wild west-inspired attractions, including the Stockyards and National Cowgirl Museum.

Fort Worth was one of just a few U.S. cities to make the cut. It's in good company with places like Paris, Germany and Las Vegas.
