Located a short distance from the Louisiana
border, Beaumont is almost more of a Cajun city than a Texan one, and the mix
of the two cultures can make for a unique experience. After the discovery of the
Spindletop gusher in 1901, Beaumont became one of Texas's
first oil boomtowns. It has since diversified and expanded to become a thriving
industrial center and port. The South
Texas State Fair, the second largest in the state, is held here every year
and attracts up to 600,000 visitors. The Crockett
Street Entertainment District in downtown Beaumont is home to numerous city
festivals and has a city block full of restaurants, nightclubs and live music.
A large number of museums, covering subjects as diverse as art and pottery, steamboats,
firefighting and the works of Thomas Edison, mark Beaumont as a cultural center
for eastern Texas.
