About Austin

Austin is the capital of Texas on the Colorado River, a hill-country city known for live music, a spring-fed pool, bats at dusk and Texas barbecue.

Austin lies on the Colorado River where the Texas Hill Country begins, with the long Lady Bird Lake running through the centre. The State Capitol, built of pink granite in 1888, is taller than the national Capitol in Washington, and Congress Avenue runs from it down to the river. Austin calls itself the Live Music Capital of the World, and Sixth Street and many small venues keep up the claim.
