Lubbock

Lubbock, Texas
Lubbock is the largest city in the Panhandle of Texas. This is the South Plains region, where the land is flat as far as the eye can see, and the wind blows strong.

But Lubbock itself is much more vibrant than the land that surrounds it, a growing city home to Texas Tech University, a surprisingly strong local music scene, plenty of museums and a great city park complete with a prairie dog town.

And surprising to many, there are several top wineries in the Lubbock area. Sports fans can attend Texas Tech games or check out the Lubbock Cotton Kings minor-league hockey team.
