For starters, nearly 30 different ethnic, national, and cultural groups from many parts of the world settled in Texas, bringing their traditions in everything from crafts to cuisine. Today that translates into a cultural landscape as varied and fascinating as a fine antique quilt. Czech, Chinese, German, Vietnamese, French, Mexican, Spanish, Italian, all these cultures and many more have made their mark in Texas, enabling a visitor to experience a whole world in just one state. This rich culture also contributes to the state's excellence in the arts. Whether you yearn for French Impressionists, a grand opera performance, or a gritty blues band, you'll find it all in Texas.
Few states can boast a history with such high drama and epic sweep.
As Texans like to say, It ain't braggin' if it's true. Best of all, visitors will find plenty of this colorful history and culture in small towns and big cities all over the Texas map, combined with landscapes perfect for recreation and perfectly picturesque.
