Austin Airport Guide

Austin has some unusual things to see and do in the city. The most popular, and definitely the strangest, is to watch the 1.5 million bats that live under the Congress Avenue Bridge as they take off for their nightly forage. Other less strange sights include the campus of the University of Texas which has pleasant gardens to walk around and the UT Tower from which you can get a great view of the city. The campus is home to many museums and art galleries including several outdoor art installations.
