Amarillo is the perfect place to get a big taste of Texas even if you only have a small amount of time. From canyons to old Cadillacs and gigantic steaks to grand scenery, the city is an Old West enthusiast's dream. One of the country's best collections of Western art and artifacts can be found at the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum. Mosey on over to the Amarillo Livestock Auction to mingle with real cowboys as they go about the business of buying and selling cattle. For those with interests that are more modern, the city boasts a great art museum and beautiful botanical gardens. If you're traveling with kids, don't miss the thrilling rides at Wonderland Park. The whole family will be in awe of the fantastic rock formations at Palo Duro Canyon State Park.

The development of the American Quarter Horse from colonial times to present day is traced through interactive exhibits, dramatic video presentations and live demonstrations.
My husband and I had an unexpected layover in Amarillo and decided to go to the QH Museum. If you grew up on a farm, enjoy horses or are just a person who enjoys horses, don’t miss this museum. It is very interesting and weaves social happenings and stories of different eras with what was happening with Quarter horses. It was worth the 2 hours we spent. We could have stayed longer. Great interactive things to learn for children who are interested in a career with horses.

My wife took me to get my first pair of cowboy boots for my 40th birthday. The associates were super friendly, helpful and steered me in the right direction to get my boots. Huge selection of boots and jeans. Would recommend this store to all my friends and family.
