For this weeks Wednesdays in Waco, I am sharing the beautiful walls of Waco!  Whether you want to commemorate your first trip to Waco or you are a local looking to explore the city, capture yourself with family or friends in a photograph of these popular murals in Waco.  Most of these walls are painted on historic buildings in downtown Waco, as part of efforts of many Wacoans to beautify downtown. Each one is really a work of art.

Here are a few places in Waco where we love to take photos in front of painted walls!!

Magnolia’s Silos- Side of the Bakery and back of building – 601 Webster Ave

Magnolia’s Little Shop on Bosque Blvd

Side of Hey Sugar on Austin Ave

Behind Magnolia Market & Waco Transit – 8th Street & Jackson Ave

The Findery – Webster Ave and 8th Street

Heritage Creamery & Common Grounds- Next to Baylor University

There are many murals that have recently been painted and others that have been in Waco for years. I have passed by these walls many times, but haven’t captured a photo!
