Welcome to Bandera and Helotes Texas, located in Bexar County in South Central Texas. The flavor of the Old West is alive in Helotes and Bandera Texas, two South Central Texas towns that are proud of their rodeos, traditional festivals and numerous ranches.
The official town site of Bandera was established in
1856. The site, which was located on a cypress-lined bend of the Medina River, had been occupied first by Indians, then later by white campers who stayed in the area to make shingles. Once officially established, the town was named for nearby Bandera Pass. Helotes was also settled around 1856 by Mexicans who intermarried with the Apache Indians camped in the vicinity.
   
Bandera Texas calls itself "The Cowboy Capital of the World," and that title is well-deserved. Budding cowpokes can check out numerous rodeos, visit a variety of ranches or spend a full day horseback riding. 

The annual "Cornyval" in Helotes presents wild rodeo performances, old-fashioned carnival rides and authentic Civil War reenactments that draw visitors from
miles around.
