Texas has 13 parks under the National Park System along with several National Wildlife Refuges and other sites. The sites include: Alibates Flint Quarries National Monument (see my page); Amistad National Recreation Area (page coming soon); Big Bend National Park (see my page); Big Thicket Natural Preserve; Chamizal National Memorial (coming to my El Paso Page); Fort Concho National Historic Landmark (coming to my San Angelo Page); Fort Davis National Historic Site (coming to my Fort Davis Page); Guadalupe Mountains National Park (see my page); Lake Meredith National Recreation Area (see my page); Lyndon B Johnson National Historic Park (coming to my Johnson City Page); Padre Island National Seashore; Palo Alto Battlefield National Historic Site; Rio Grande National Scenic River; and San Antonio Missions National Historic Park (coming to my San Antonio Page).
Texas has a large number of state parks with a wide variety of attractions. I have been to 16 state parks in Texas: Barton Warnock Environmental Education Center SP; Big Bend Ranch SP; Casa Navarro SHS; Davis Mountains SP; Fannin Battleground SHS; Fort Lancaster SHS; Fort Leaton SHS; Fort McKavett SHS; Franklin Mountains SP; Goliad SP; Hueco Tanks SHS; Magoffin Home SHS: Monahans Sandhills SP; Monument Hill and Kreische Brewery SHS; Seminole Canyon SHS; and Washington on the Brazos SHS.
Texas is also jammed full of large cities, small cities, and small towns with lots of interesting things to see.
