If you are a fan of stained glass art, the Gelman Stained Glass Museum in San Juan is a must-visit location. Located in the Rio Grande Valley, it is home to the most extensive collection of stained glass in the United States. The sunlight filtering through these ancient shrines' windows fills the heart with joy. Each work of art tells a story, and it's easy to get lost in time admiring the colorful depictions of biblical stories. The Gelman Stained Glass Museum is a spiritual sanctuary that creates a metaphysical and divine experience for visitors. The museum replicates the atmosphere of a cathedral, both on the exterior and interior, making it look like a natural cathedral. The museum aims to offer a spiritual experience that can only be achieved in a holy environment.

Charro Days is an annual fiesta celebrated in late February in Brownsville, Texas. This event brings together the community to showcase the city's unique features and celebrate the Mexican heritage of the area on both sides of the Rio Grande. The festival was first conceived in 1937 by local business leaders to pay tribute to the "Charro," the dashing Mexican gentleman cowboy. The festival celebrates the spirit of two cultures and unites the border towns of Brownsville and Matamoros. It pays homage to Brownsville's location on the border with Mexico and its rich cultural heritage. During the festival, residents and visitors dress up in traditional Mexican outfits to honor the "Charros," the heroes of the borderlands and Mexican cowboys.
