Vacation in Texas

by Saurav Banerjee on 15/08/10 at 11:07 am

Located in the South Central part of America, Texas is bordered by Oklahoma to the north, Mexico to the south, Louisiana to the east and New Mexico to the west. El Paso, San Antonio, Austin and Houston are the major cities. Nicknamed as the ‘Lone Star State’, Texas is a traveler’s paradise.

The Lone Star State is divided into some beautiful regions. With plenty of open spaces and rolling plains, the Panhandle Plains is a place not to miss out for. The Texas-Oklahoma border is the region’s northern edge which stretches south to San Angelo. If you move just south of the region you will find one of the most beautiful natural attractions of Texas, the Palo Duro Canyon State Park. It is one of the biggest state parks in the state and includes over eighteen thousands acres of breathtaking scenery.

If you wish to witness the beauty of the Chihuahuan Desert, then land in the Big Bend Country region. This vastly diverse place is filled with rough mountains and valleys but when even the slightest of rains touches the ground, the area, unleashes a beauty which is impossible to describe in words. It is the ultimate place for nature lovers in quest for a wonderful experience. You can take as many photographs as you wish for your friends to witness and can also camp, bike, hike or just relax in the desert wilderness.

Head straight from the beauty of the desert to the warm waters of the Gulf Coast for having a swim. If you love birding then Gulf Coast is an ideal place.  Also enjoy yourself in the sun-kissed beaches and explore the North Padre National Seashore, the longest stretch of barrier-island beach in the planet.

So, in a state as diverse as Texas, there is everything for everyone.
