Although there are enough natural wonders in Texas to visit a new one every single day for the rest of your life, we all have places we tend to frequent. Personally, one of my favorites is Hamilton Pool. Swimming underneath this magical limestone grotto transports me to a Disney-esque world full of singing lobsters, happy clams, and dreams come true. I never thought this swimming hole could get any more beautiful…until now. Turns out, viewing waterfalls from different angles can showcase them in a whole new light that makes them even more breathtaking than they already are.

I think we can all agree that Hamilton Pool is one of the most beautiful places in Texas.

It's an underground grotto with a limestone overhang and crystal-clear water, and it's absolutely magical to visit.

Most of you probably think there's no way it could possibly get any more breathtaking, but I beg to differ.
