Texas - Rio Grande Valley (Chapter)
This is the Rio Grande Valley chapter from Lonely Planet's Texas guidebook.
The Rio Grande (Big River; the Mexicans call it the Río Bravo, or Brave River) forms a natural border between Texas and Mexico. And nowhere during its 2000-mile course from Colorado's San Juan Mountains to the Gulf of Mexico is it more fraught with drama.
- stroll the old center and atmospheric, tree-lined avenues of border town Del Rio
- maps
- learn how today's politics were shaped on the sunburned expanse of the Palo Alto Battlefield National Historical Site
- transportation
- consider a day trip to Mexico's counterparts to US border towns, but consider issues about safety and bureaucracy first
- restaurants & accommodations
Coverage includes: Rio Grande Valley, Brownsville & around, McAllen & around, The Upper Valley, Central Rio Grande, Laredo, Carrizo Springs, Eagle Pass, Del Rio, Amistad National Recreation Area, Brackettville, Seminole Canyon State Historical Park and Langtry.
