Well, I can't say much about the town of Sonora. It's just your average Texan town. However, about 15 minutes away lie one of the greatest treasures of North America: the amazing Caverns of Sonora. Since you made it this far, don't leave town without seeing them. There are 3 types of tours, but the one I reccomend it the longer of the normal tours (the Crystal tour) which costs about $20 and takes about 2 hours.

Crystal Room

This is perhaps the best room in the entire cavern. You have to cross this bridge that leads through the majestic Crystal Room, thus why it's call the Crystal Tour. This room is totally made from crystal-like formations. It's an amazing sight!

Inside a whale's mouth :).

Oh what would a kid give to see the inside of a whale... not the true whales, but the ones in cartoons and stories. Imagine Moby Dick, then enter the last segment of the tour. The white coated walls are amazing!

Is it a vase or a couple...

Is it a vase or a couple kissing?
If anything, this tour is about opening your mind and expanding your imagination. So look at all the rocks and formations and try to link a common picture to what you're seeing. On this particular picture, I was reminded to the imfamous picture we've all probably seen. You know, the optical illussions in which the image seems to show two things at the same time. This picture looks like the imfamous vace, or is it a couple kissing?

"Sutton County Courthouse"

The Sutton County Courthouse was built in 1891, and looks like a cross between a traditional Texas Courthouse and the home from the Addam’s Family. It is one of the more interesting courthouses in the state. There were several Veteran's Monuments, and historical plaques on the courthouse grounds.

"Historical District"

There is a nice historic district around the courthouse.
