Downtown Waco is full of unique art galleries and interesting exhibits that attract visitors from all over the country. However, instead of exploring the conventional art galleries in Waco, try to find the locations of the six spooky rat murals painted by Xavier Prou, a well-known Parisian artist. By exploring Franklin and Austin Avenue, visitors can discover the locations of these murals. The best way to go on this unique journey is by finding the mural locations by yourself without spoilers.
Waco is the birthplace of Dr. Pepper. For this reason, visitors often go to the Dr. Pepper Museum in Waco to explore the fascinating history of this popular beverage. However, there’s an experience inside the museum that is known for being unique and memorable: making your own soda. The Make-a-Soda tour at the Dr. Pepper Museum allows visitors to create their own unique, weird soda flavor – make it as weird or as plain as possible! General admission to the museum is just $10 per person, but the Make-a-Soda tour costs an additional $10.
