Antiquity, Texas

View across the water at the Landy of Antiquity Texas

Maybe I'm in a cowgirl mood because I recently purchased two Amaretto horses, but I think anyone would enjoy visiting Antiquity Texas, an 1800's role playing sim in the Antiquity Community of Victorian Sims. The sim itself is beautiful from the lovely landscaping to the detailed architecture. You can see the Alamo, the Governor's Mansion, San Jacinto Plaza, Texas Capitol, and many other historical places.

When you land at the landing in Antiquity Texas, you will be on the docks. Maps and several tours begin here. You can tour by foot, horse-drawn carriage, hot air balloon, or bicycle.

Visitors can tour by foot, air, on a bicycle, or in a horse-drawn carriage

Of course, there is also a shop, Los Texanos Beaux Arts, home to the designs of Jacon Cortes, co-owner of the Antiquity, Texas sim. Jewelry and other items are on display in an ornate building, an attraction in itself. There is also shopping on the first floor of the Capitol.

It is recommended that visitors wear Victorian, Western, or period dress, and it certainly adds to the fun. Also, look for freebies at the landing point The Texas Library Association, though the Community Virtual Library, is offering a tour on Sunday, March 6 from 2 - 4 pm SLT. The will include a viewing of the Virtual Texas exhibit that will remain on display up through April on Info Island. For more information about the tour, contact Valibrarian Gregg.
