Situated in central Texas, Waco is
just 95 mi (153 km) south of Dallas
and 101 mi (163 km) north of Austin.
Frequently a target of American Indian and Mexican raids in the 1800s, the city
of Waco has long been patrolled and protected by the Texas Rangers, making it
a fitting location to house the Texas
Ranger Law Enforcement Hall of Fame and Museum. The Dr.
Pepper Museum and Free Enterprise Institute is also located in this city,
as the soft drink was invented and initially distributed here. Various outdoor
activities, including hiking, camping and picnicking, can also be enjoyed at municipal
parks such as Cameron
Park and Lion's
Park. Historic Waco homes, such as Fort
House and McCulloch
House, provide visitors a taste of the city's past. From rodeos to home and
livestock shows, Waco's
Heart O' Texas Fair Complex plays host to a range of events throughout the
year.
