- [The Piney Woods] The Piney Woods of East Texas, with its millions of acres of pine
- forests and wetlands, has an unique appeal all its own. Texas' four
- national forests, which offer wonderful camping, hiking, and fishing,
- are all located in this densely wooded area of the state. History
- buffs can visit the 1800s via quaint historic towns and replica
- pioneer settlements. Many of the Victorian buildings double as
- charming bed-and-breakfast inns. A steam-powered locomotive carries
- visitors through sky-scraping pines. Blooming dogwoods, magnolias,
- and roses add a touch of southern charm to this region.
