Introduction to Marfa

Marfa is a small town in southern Texas, USA. It is located on a plateau in the largest desert of the North American continent, less than 100 kilometers away from the U.S.-Mexico border. Founded as a railway station in the early 1880s, Marfa later developed into a settled community.

The town has a small population, with 1,788 residents recorded in the 2020 census. Boasting unique and pristine Western landscapes, it has served as a filming location for numerous movies such as No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood. Marfa also draws many tourists with the "Marfa Lights," a natural mystery, and an official observation site has been set up for visitors to view this phenomenon. Additionally, it is a hub for contemporary art—minimalist artist Donald Judd has a large number of his works on display here, and the Chinati Foundation he founded is a major art attraction.
