Your Visitor Center

Welcome to Palestine, Texas!

The Palestine Visitor Center welcomes guests to our community as well as new residents. It is often the first stop for anyone entering our community. We offer information about just about anything in Palestine, TX

Marketing Our City

The Palestine Visitor Center is telling the story of Palestine everyday through advertising, social media, interviews, and traveler information events and centers throughout the state.
The Palestine, TX Visitor Center plays a vital role in supporting our local economy and community. While welcoming visitors is part of our mission, our work extends far beyond the front desk— benefiting residents, businesses, and taxpayers year-round.

A Marketing Partner

Tourism works best when we work together. The Visitor Center collaborates with local tourism partners to promote the entire destination. By aligning messaging and sharing resources, we can amplify visibility for everyone involved.

Economic Impact for Local Taxpayers

Tourism pays its way. The Visitor Center helps turn visitors to our city into local revenue. Through destination marketing, visitor services, and strategic partnerships, tourism generates hotel occupancy tax that supports local community projects, events, and quality- of-life initiatives without increasing the tax burden on residents. Visitors to our community shop in our stores, eat in our restaurants, and attend local events and activities, which generate sales tax dollars to support city functions such as Parks maintenance and Police and Fire service.
