Explore the elegant side of Austin at the Neill-Cochran House, considered one of the city's three most important historic residences, where you'll discover several rooms decorated with 1780-1925 furniture. Tour the historic home and hear several stories about the many occupants over the years, including the Texas School for the Blind and its occupation by federal troops during Reconstruction. The home is open for daily tours and is a living history lesson on how Austin went from a sleepy outpost to the state capital to the home of one of the largest universities in the country.

Experience thousands of species and interactive exhibits at the Austin Aquarium, where they provide children and families access to the excitement and learning opportunities of the ocean without the long trip to the coast. Each of the animal encounters is unique and rewarding. So, whether you are meeting the Ring-tailed or Red Ruffed lemurs for the first time, or feeding the Stingrays, Sharks, Iguanas, Tortoises, Lorikeets, and more, you will find an experience worth your while and make memories that will last a lifetime.
