2. Fredericksburg, Texas
Whenever I travel to a new destination, one of the first things I try is food. I’ve never been anywhere without sampling their culinary delights, and for what is Texas famous? Enchiladas, for sure! If you’ve been here at least once, you know how amazing they are, and if you haven’t, well, you can change that next year by just putting Fredericksburg on your travel destination list.
Beyond its delectable cuisine, what else makes Fredericksburg a great hidden gem in the USA? Let me think. Definitely the architecture! If you have ever been to Germany and liked the whole rural environment, then you will be happy to know that we have such beautiful scenery in America too.
Fredericksburg has German heritage, as suggested by its name. German immigrants who came here during the early 1800s helped make it into the thriving community it is today. The Germans brought with them genuine German cuisine, excellent beer, and exquisite wines, all of which are still popular today.
You’re still not convinced to visit this hidden gem? You have to know that besides a huge field of lavender that’s blooming in the spring, this place is also known for good wine.
If you haven’t visited this place, it’s time to pack your bags!
