Round Top, Texas Is the Best Small U.S. Town for Shopping in 2024

"Set on over 200 acres and founded in 1971 by concert pianist James Dick, the Round Top Festival Institute centers around a 1,000-seat Festival Concert Hall that is an acoustic and visual wonder; the campus also offers public spaces including a museum room with personal effects of composer David W. Guion, walking trails, gardens, lakes, and a restored 1800s chapel, and you can visit on your own or schedule guided walking tours with staff." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.
