Austin, Texas
The capital of Texas, Austin
is both a historic city and one of the fastest growing high-tech centers
in the US. The 1888 State Capitol Building dominates the center of the
city, while nearby streets display well-preserved buildings from
earlier periods of Texas history. Throughout the city, tree-filled greenbelts
and public parks illustrate why Austin is famous for its environmental
sensitivity. Live music is also a major industry, attracting visitors from
all over
the world to its many clubs
and music festivals.
