Houston
With great restaurants, easy transportation via trolley and one of the finest convention centers in the country, Houston is a great city to spend some time.
Although the city itself is home to just over 2 million people (over 5 millions live in Houston metro area), you'll get a distinct feeling of community, warmth, and friendliness you can't really find elsewhere, especially among cities of similar size and complexity.
Stroll around our Museum District, where you’ll find not only 11 institutions, but the excellent Houston Zoological Gardens, the Rose Garden at Hermann Park, and depending on the time of year, a free performance at Miller Outdoor Theater. Tour NASA and Space Center Houston or see a great performance by the city's ballet, orchestral, and theatre companies.
Houston's "fun in the sun" is especially thrilling during the summer when it offers a host of wet and wild outdoor, as well as indoor, activities. Start by taking the plunge in one of Texas’ largest waterparks, SplashTown. With several water coasters, some as high as five stories, as well as fountains of fun for the little ones, there’s something for all ages at this north Houston park.
