Things to do:
Discover El Paso, Texas' westernmost city.
A city of nearly three quarters of a million
people, which sprawls across hundreds of square miles of desert and rambling
foothills. The Franklin Mountains, southern tip of the Rockies, slice El
Paso nearly in two. With its classic Western geography and tri-cultural
history, El Paso makes an intriguing place to visit. The city is
in the Mountain Time Zone along with its sister city of Juarez, Mexico,
directly across the border. El Paso is the fourth largest city in Texas
and the seventeenth largest city in the United States. Seventy-six percent
of El Paso is of Hispanic descent, and the city is one of the youngest
in the U.S. with a median age of 28.
El Paso is the gateway to Juarez, Mexico (US citizens do not need a visa for a short visit across the border), and to southern New Mexico with such recognized attractions as Fort Bliss, Carlsbad Caverns and White Sands National Memorial. El Paso's dry, sunny, warm desert climate earned the city nickname "Sun City".
