Once a popular place for cattle grazing, Lubbock has since changed into a well-known Texas city that is popular for agriculture. Since Lubbock is the biggest city in the panhandle of Texas, it also has a good share of hotels, motels and bed and breakfasts. For drivers making their way through Texas, Lubbock is a stop along the way before entering New Mexico or Colorado.

The University in the area is Texas Tech and students come from around the country to attend the school. While agriculture is strong in this city, cotton was really how Lubbock was founded. Even today there are still cotton fields in Lubbock, reminding the visitor of years ago.

Lubbock Is a Good Stop along the Way
Some of the things that tourists will enjoy before driving out of town are the outlet malls that dot the landscape. For a taste of history, though, there are still shopfronts that are reminiscent of the days of old. Old habits die hard in Lubbock and even some of the farmers refuse to sell their land in rebellion against new developments.

Lubbock is right in the middle of Abilene and Amarillo and is as flat as any Texas town in this part of the state. For the most part, it wont take more than a day to see the sights in the area, but do stop for the evening and attend a rodeo. For a real taste of Texas, Lubbock and the surrounding area will be a good example of how real Texans live and spend their time.
