What a Gem in Terrell, Texas. We were in Terrell for a 6 p.m. wedding and had all day Saturday to…read moreexplore the area. We were researching the area and found the No.1 Brittish Flying Museam and decided to pay it a visit. It is located at the Terrell airport in an unpretentious metal building and accompying metal hanger. There is an interesting story about the No. 1 Brittish Flying School, how it came about and contributed to training around 2,200, mostly Brittish pilots during WWII. The impact the school had on Terrell, the Brittish, and the war effort. We were met at the door by the Executive Director of the musueam and shortly thereafter joined another couple and board member on a tour of the musueam. The musueam has preserved the history of what happened in Terrell during WWII with numerous displays, exhibits, and photographs. In the hanger they have two aircraft, one a restored Stearman bi-plane used by the students. If you are interested in WWII history, or aviation, this little musueam is worthy of a trip to Terrell, Texas. This is the link to their web site: https://www.bftsmuseum.org/

We recently held a rehearsal dinner for 50 guests at the Number 1 British Flying Training School…read moreMuseum and it was perfect. From the moment we booked it until the end of the dinner I could tell we were in great hands. Gerrie, the museum representative, was available for us to come out to look over the facility. She also helped us decide on the layout of the room. The museum had tables and chairs for us to use for our dinner. The venue also had table clothes, water glasses, and some other items available. I was actually the last one to arrive for the party but fortunately Gerrie and Bill were graciously greeting all the guests and either guiding them on a tour through the Museum (which is very interesting) or directing them to the drink station and their tables. We feel like we hit the jackpot when we learned about the "No 1 BFTSM" as a venue for the Rehearsal Dinner we were giving and would 100% recommend the museum as a great and unique place for an event!

Besides being a park, it's a place where it holds special events throughout the year that may be worth checking out. The park has a free parking lot just off the to side and it is easily accessible. I appreciate that it also has a picnic area, garden areas, benches, water fountains (though I doubt anyone uses it), and restrooms. It is quite well maintained and a sweet spot in Dallas for some fun photos. A few historic buildings I visited include the Alamo Saloon, Blum Bro. General Store, and Renner School.

I would recommend looking on Groupon for the best deal on admission prices. The prices for two people were good. They had insightful and beautiful art pieces throughout the museum. The staff were friendly and answered any questions we had. They have a couple of other exhibits available that you can pay for. We opted to stick with the main exhibit they offered. The museum had a wierd smell in some parts of the exhibit. I believe this was due to nearby trash bins and food preparation for an event. We enjoyed learning and viewing biblical and historical accounts from centuries ago. They have a big mural in the back of the museum that showcases influential people spanning decades which is worth checking out. Their gift shop ranges from affordable to pricey, however I enjoyed looking around for a souvenir. You could easily spend an hour or more here, the museum is all one story. They have a lovely garden (Via Dolorosa Sculpture Garden) adjacent to the museum with statues dedicated to Jesus marking his journey to the Cross. They have benches to sit throughout the garden surrounded by flowers and butterflies. They have a survivor tree dedicated to 9/11 victims and their families. The Scuplture Garden was peaceful, simple yet beautiful.

One of my favorite Dallas museums. Incredible collection of Japanese samurai armor and artifacts,…read morefeaturing suits of armor, helmets, masks, and weapons from the 5th to 19th centuries. The Samurai Collection in Dallas is one of the largest of its kind in the world. Highlights include: - Intricate suits of armor, helmets, and masks. - Horse armor and weaponry, including katanas and even early European-style pistols used by samurai. - Informative plaques (in English and Spanish), films on iron production, and a study area/library with relevant books for deeper learning. Well worth a visit!

The location is incredibly quaint and sits in a historic building, so it naturally enhances the ambiance but doesn't give it much room to work with. On the plus side: free parking. The Samurai armor is indeed the anchor to not only telling the story of the warrior, but its history as well. Every piece is essentially art, too. They're captivating to look at because there's naturally a ton of detail in the armor. That being said, they do advertise seeing other things as well, but it's really only just a bunch of armor. For the price and the hour it takes to do, it's recommendable if you're okay with seeing almost exclusively Samurai armor.

Great speakers, relevant to the occasion and Dallas & the lengths of the talks were perfect. Friendly staff & I loved it that parking was directly across the street (it's downtown). The museum is beautiful and even though Juneteenth was the occasion, I so appreciated that we could view the museum in its entirety & learn a ton about the Holocaust. They did an excellent job of telling the story & their docents were super knowledgeable. I'm addicted to magnets, so I bought one in their gift shop where the items were reasonably priced. Good experience. Horrendous atrocities suffered by both groups. Valuable history lessons were shared that day though for all in attendance.
