Tyler at a Glance
A haven for botanical enthusiasts in East
Texas, Tyler boasts the title of Rose Capital of America for its important
role in the flower industry. Approximately one out of every five roses sold in
North America comes from in and around Tyler, an accomplishment celebrated annually
during the Texas
Rose Festival held in early October. The spirit for floral gardening continues
during the unique Azalea
Trail event, which is held over the last two weeks of March and features self-guided
tours of local residential gardens. Those looking to explore the unique and colorful
heritage of the town can visit the Tyler
Rose Museum, the Tyler
Museum of Art, the Carnegie
History Center and the Historic
Aviation Memorial Museum. The area is also recognized for providing access
to numerous lakes and parks that support a wide variety of recreational opportunities.
Tyler is also home to the Caldwell
Zoo, which houses animal species from three continents.
