National Cowgirl Museum

This airy, impressive museum explores the myth and reality of cowgirls in American culture. Graced by a 2019 expansion that focuses especially on the relationship between horse and woman, and ranging from rhinestone costumes to rare film footage, it's a fun and educational ride. By the time you walk out, you'll have a whole new appreciation for these tough workers.
