The homestead of the fictional Ewing family has become the "world's most famous ranch." The sprawling acreage of this North Texas ranch is located 20 miles north of downtown Dallas and, although the long-running television series Dallas has been off the air for several years, the mansion and grounds are still a popular place to visit. Tram tours carry guests on a voyage through the history of the series every half-hour throughout the day. The Ewing mansion is the key point of the tour, offering insight to the characters and filming of the series. Shopping is available at Lincolns and Longhorns, where inspired clothing is sold, and at Ranch Roundup, focusing primarily on souvenir merchandise. Snacks and beverages can be found at Miss Ellie's Deli.
