Austin is a city of contrasts. On one hand, it's a fast-paced, modern metropolis that's become a mecca for tech companies. Yet woven between the glass and steel is a rich history and cultural tapestry that makes Austin unique.

Nearly 90 thoughtfully photographed and carefully curated photos showcase Austin's varied offerings, including:

• The neon glow of Sixth Street and South Congress
• Views of Texas's striking pink granite capitol building
• Victorian mansions and Art Deco buildings amid modern skyscrapers
• Amazing murals, sculptures, and other public art
• Scenic views from atop Mount Bonnell
• Austin's beloved swimming holes, nature trails, and spring-fed creeks and rivers
• Double-spread panoramas of Ladybird Lake, Austin's skyline, and more

Beautifully photographed and perfectly sized, this compact keepsake makes a great gift or inspiration for any Austin adventure.
