Amarillo

Amarillo has served as a railroad and cattle-shipping center in the Texas Panhandle since the late 19th century. Set on the High Plains near the Canadian River, the city remains closely linked to ranching, grain, and the broad open country of northern Texas. Palo Duro Canyon, south of Amarillo, cuts through the plains and is widely known as the “Grand Canyon of Texas.” Route 66 passes through the historic Sixth Street district, where early roadside commercial buildings still shape the area’s character. West of town, Cadillac Ranch, a 1974 public art installation of half-buried cars, has become a lasting roadside landmark.
