Nightlife: Austin has more bars per person than any other city in the united states. As a result you can find any type or style of bar you could imagine. In the video, we discuss the four main districts (2018). East sixth, Dirty Sixth, West Sixth, and Rainey street.
Outdoors: Austin is an easy city to be active in. There are many parks, rivers, and lakes to explore. A few of our favorite places are lady bird lake, Barton spring pool, the green belt, lake Travis, lake Austin, and the hope graffiti wall. The new location for the hope graffiti wall is supposed to be at: 9507 Sherman Rd. It is supposed to open at the end of 2018, but double check before heading there to make sure it actually exists!
History: Austin is full of rich history. If you visit we recommend visiting the bullock museum and the Texas state capitol.
