Living in Texas
Texas is considered a conservative state in the
United States. The Republicans also have one of
their strongholds here. The U.S. Presidents from
the Bush family have shaped the image of the Texans
in Europe in recent decades. It is also known in
this country that Texas is the state with the
most capital punishment. Regardless of how you feel
about these political facts, the country has a
fantastic nature and an interesting way of life,
which many visitors will soon discover as the
typical American cliché (keywords: cowboy, cowboy
hat, BBQ, rodeo).
According to
allcitypopulation, most Texans belong to Christian religions and are
descended from Spaniards, Germans, British, Irish
and French. There are African American and Asian
minorities. In Central Texas in particular, many
people live with German ancestors. The immigrants
from Germany settled especially
around Austin and San Antonio. New Braunfels (near
Austin) is also known in this context, where the
sausage festival is celebrated once a year. In
Fredericksburg, too, German words are heard more
often and one or two German words appear. Some
people still speak their old language, Texas German,
a mixed language of German and American.

Texas as a vacation destination
The state is also very interesting as a travel
destination. The country's nature is
overwhelming. The Big Bend and Guadalupe Mountains
National Parks are particularly popular in
Texas. The Big Bend National Park is already on the
border with Mexico, which is marked by the Rio
Grande. Here you come across the Chihauhau desert
with the typical desert vegetation, many yuccas and
a number of cactus species. The region is relatively
humid for a desert, so that many animal species live
here (including collared peccaries and racing
cuckoos).
The highest point of Texas is in Guadalupe
National Park (Guadalupe Peak with 2,667 m). The
mountains contrast with the surrounding desert and
form fascinating formations. In the old days, mail
coaches still drove through the landscape on dusty
paths. There is an old stagecoach station near the
Pine Springs Visitor Center.
A visit to the National Monument in Texas, the
Alibates Flint Quarries, is also a special
experience. Here in the north of the state there are
sites of flint that were once used by the
Indians. Guided ranger tours lead there and let you
experience this place.
The larger cities and metropolises such
as Houston, Dallas and San Antonio are always worth
a visit. We report on the sights and events there on
the respective sub-pages here.
Texas is certainly a world in itself, but you
should experience it! |
