One of the most diverse and interesting states in America, Texas, is also the biggest and best. Not only is it home to Tex-Mex, the Johnson Space Center and the Superdome, it happens to be the Live Music Capital of the World, giving it lots to brag about. Travellers from all over the world book flights to Texas to discover all that this Lone Star State has to offer.
The first thing travelers notice as their flight to Texas lands is its wide-open ranges, but Texas is also urban. It’s a leader in ranching, agriculture, and high-technology; has world-class art collections and museums; and has three of the ten largest US cities. On the whole the state is conservative, but its capital Austin is laid back, trendy and decidedly hippie-like. A true melting pot, Texas is proud of its Czech, German, Irish, and Hispanic communities.
Visitors to Texas will arrive to find a state with some of the friendliest and most hospitable people living in it, whether you need directions or shelter from a storm.
