Allow at least 2 hours to explore. π€ National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum A must-see for anyone interested in Western culture β even as a Texan, I loved it! π¨ Paseo Arts District Colorful buildings, boutique shops, art galleries, and brunch spots β very Instagrammable! πΈ π Greetings from Oklahoma Sign A small but iconic mural.

The museum is built on the actual site β emotional but important. π· Myriad Botanical Gardens Gorgeous outdoor gardens (perfect during tulip season!) + a tropical greenhouse (β οΈ stuffy air, but still worth a quick visit). π€ Bricktown A riverside district with water taxis, restaurants, and shops β feels like a mini San Antonio River Walk! ποΈ Turner Falls (in Davis, OK) A beautiful park with clear streams, camping spots, and BBQ areas β ideal for a night outdoors!
