CITY GUIDE: Austin, TX

---

Though we’ve highlighted Dallas many times on our blog, today we are spotlighting another Texas city we KNOW you all love: Austin.

If you’ve never been to Austin, I definitely recommend putting this on your travel list. Dallas may hold the glitz and glamour vibe of Texas, but Austin brings a new cool to the state. This unique and creative city not only is known as the live music capital of the nation, but has also become the fastest growing metro area in the country. With its hipster meets Texan vibe, the city is an eclectic mix of music, tech, art, fitness, environmental awareness, fashion, and much much more.

Check out our Austin City Guide below to see why you need to add this gem to your travel bucket list:
