15 Best Things To Do in El Paso, Texas

Picture of El Paso, Texas

About El Paso, Texas


With an average of 302 sunny days in the year, El Paso is nicknamed the Sun City and is representative of the heat that Texas is known for. Despite the high temperatures, the city attracts many tourists, owing to its popular spots, such as the El Paso Mission Trail, the Franklin Mountain State Park, and the Plaza Theatre.

Meanwhile, the Tex-Mex cuisine of the region is a delicious concoction of Texas dishes and Mexican foods from the bordering town of Juarez. In fact, the city is often called the Mexican Food Capital in the US. Start with a plate of enchiladas and finish your dinner off with some delicious burritos. Yum yum!

Although it’s one of the poorest cities in the US - as per income level - El Paso is also one of the safest. So, tourists are welcome and encouraged.
