From: The Discoverer - 12 Charming U.S. Towns You Need to Know

First and foremost, you should know that there exists an entire wine region in Texas known as Texas Hill Country (like, big enough to showcase over 100 wineries).
And second, you should know that the most adorable town (city, technically) lies at its core. Fredericksburg is unlike any other Texas town,
with its limestone buildings lining the extra-wide streets (made so ox-carts could effectively U-turn),
captivating history of 1800s German settlers and role in World War II, and blend of wineries, upscale restaurants, and boutique lodging with modest southern living and tradition.
If anything, be sure to visit Marktplatz in the very center of town, whether for a summer farmers market or during Weihnachtszeit (Christmas season),
when a 26-foot-tall, authentically crafted German pyramid is erected to spread good tidings and holiday cheer.
