Austin is a boomtown of creativity and culture. It is a hub for filmmaking, comedy and music, as well as a popular destination for foodies taking holidays in Texas. Tex-Mex eateries, BBQ joints and hundreds of food trucks help you keep hunger at bay. Austin’s rhythm is evident in the excellent live music performances from all genres.
Its great outdoors offer plenty of green space, miles of cycling paths and public swimming holes. One of the fastest developing cities in the United States, Austin continues to be transformed by the tech boom into Texas’ answer to Silicon Valley. But despite all the recent turns, Austin remains an extraordinarily welcoming and open destination, a city where you’re not only permitted but also expected to be yourself, in all your unique glory.
