Why We Love Houaton, Texas

Houston is a world-class city filled with culture, restaurants, art, and activities to rival any city in the country. Houston is home to an astonishing 10,000 restaurants, making it one of the foodie capitals of the South. If you are looking for a weekend getaway, or even a quick day out in Houston, there is an impossible amount to do and see. As locals to the area, here would be our top choices:

The Museum District

If you love a good day out at the museum, it’s hard to beat Houston (like, really hard to beat). Houston has over 1,500 world-class museums, many of which are absolutely free to the general public. You can spend hours driving all over town from museum to museum, but your best bet is to check out the Museum District. This idyllic neighborhood between the Texas Medical Center and Rice University is home to 18 museums within a one and a half mile radius. Whether you’re interested in art, space, Texas culture or even world history, you can’t do much better than a day out in the Houston museum District.

Space Center Houston

You can’t come to Houston and not visit Space Center Houston. Incredibly fun and educational for both kids and adults, Space Center Houston is the top international tourist destination in Houston for good reason. Come see real live rockets that were flown in space, listen to incredible talks about the history and future of the US space program, and learn about NASA’s upcoming Artemis program which will return humans to the moon for the first time in 50 years. If you are going to choose just one activity during your visit to Houston – this would be our choice!

Houston Murals

If you are looking for an art “experience” consider spending a day exploring the colorful murals that can be found throughout the city. We highly recommend you use Houston Mural Map which is a map of over 750+ murals crowd sourced by a local network of artists and mural hunters.
