Texas is full of things to see and do. From historic landmarks to space-age marvels, from small-town fairs to state-wide festivals there are plenty of attractions and activities to ensure a fun-filled Texas vacation.
Texas has one of the most diverse populations in the state. This unique blend of people, coupled with Texas’ varied geographical regions, has resulted in a number of festivals that are just as diverse as the people who call Texas home.
Texans pride themselves on making everything bigger than it has to be. That certainly is the case when it comes to theme parks. Texas is home to some of the biggest and best parks and rides in the country.
Canyons, caves, rivers, mountains, lakes and bays - Texas is a virtual bounty of natural wonders. Today visitors to Texas can tour many of these sites, some of which are state parks and others which are privately owned and managed.
Texas is home to some of the top zoos in the nation. A visit to these zoos allows tourists to see both native wildlife, as well as exotic species imported from around the globe. Additionally, the Lone Star State is home to several world-class aquariums.
Texas has a long and interesting history. Luckily, many of Texas' most historic sites and landmarks remain today. Additionally, just about every town in Texas is home to a museum. Traditional museums on topics such as history and science abound, as do museums celebrating the unusual or zany, such as the Ripley's Museum in San Antonio. |
