There’s much more to this Lone Star city than Tex Mex, BBQ and country music. Houston is also home to a 17-block theater district and eight performing arts companies. Most Houston hotels are just minutes from key attractions like the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center, the Museum of Natural Science, the Houston Zoo and Aquarium, and NASA.
For a taste of true Texas charm, the Livestock show has you covered. Billed as the largest rodeo in the world, this is a Houston event that can’t be missed. Bayou Place is another top draw in Houston. This sleek, multi-use complex promises an escape from the Texas heat as well as great full-service restaurants, pubs, live music venues and multiple theatres.
In cooler months, check out Market Square Park in the downtown historic district of Houston for entertainment, dining, public art displays and tons of green space. Bonus: the park hosts free movie nights in the summer! The Uptown/Galleria area is another popular area that’s home to several top Houston hotels, upscale shops like Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, and a variety of trendy eateries.
