Edinburg

Edinburg was first named Chapin for the townsite promoter but was renamed in 1911. It is the Hidalgo County seat and the western gateway to the Lower Rio Grande Valley. Edinburg is also the center of a vast vegetable and citrus culture. Industries include food processing, furniture, foundry products, fertilizers, oil and dairy products. It is also the home of the University of Texas-Pan American.

Make time for quiet places.

Not every destination needs noise to be meaningful.
