I've gone to Austin with family in June for a week's visit,
and I liked the people, the climate, and the food there.
There are many places to go to, and one of my favorite place was the South Congress Avenue. Also, I walked on 6th street, and there are marketplaces. Austin is a city full of beauty
and a rich heritage in history.

I've been to Austin many times and I absolutely love it! So many places to see, so many cool people, you will not be bored~ But if you run out of sites, San Antonio is a short drive south. No trip to Texas is complete without a visit.
