Tyler is the epitome of Texas. Lake fishing, BBQ, and
museums fill the town. To the southeast is Lake Tyler where you can boat, swim,
fish, and hike. This is a scenic lake with tall pine trees. These trees cover
the entire city and unusual to see in Texas most of the time but are one of the
defining traits of the east border with Louisiana.
What Tyler is most famous for is its rose garden. The
Tyler Rose Garden is an expansive garden that spans 14 acres and houses many
different types of roses as well as selling them.
