Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near Texas

While in Texas, you might enjoy a visit to:

Austin, Texas: World's Largest Urban Bat Colony

Crowds gather every evening to watch 750,000 Mexican free-tailed bats take flight from under the Congress Avenue Bridge.
~28 miles from Bastrop.

Hutto, Texas: Hutto Hippo Statues

About 100 concrete hippos are scattered throughout this community, including a large one in front of the high school. Apparently an escaped circus hippo in the early 20th century created quite a stir here. My favorite was a pair of hippos, with the girl in a yellow bikini.
~33 miles from Bastrop.

Luling, Texas: Watermelon Thump and Water Tower

Rural Texas town celebrates its watermelon industry with an annual festival and a year-'round majestic 'melon water tower.
~36 miles from Bastrop.

College Station, Texas: George Bush Presidential Library and Museum

America's President, 1988-1992, is remembered in this lavish, and sometimes silly, museum.
~67 miles from Bastrop.
