Go around the world without leaving Texas | Travel Texas | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle: "The mysteries of Stonehenge, the literary legacy of Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre and the ostentatiousness of the Eiffel Tower draw throngs of tourists from around the world.
Yet Texans willing to forgo travel and authenticity don’t even need to cross the state line to enjoy lesser-known replicas of these landmarks that — for whatever reason — are within driving distance.
In addition to Stonehenge II in Hunt, the Paris (Texas) Eiffel Tower and the Globe of the Great Southwest in Odessa, there is a faux Forbidden City in Katy and even a second Alamo outside Brackettville. None may anchor a vacation, but there’s enough around them to piece together a fun time."
