HOUSTON'S TOP EXPERIENCES
Here are some of the things that should be near the top of your list when you decide to visit the heart of Texas:
​
• Probably the most highly sought-after attraction is the Houston Space Center – a living monument to the history of space travel, and the home of NASA Mission Control which continues to play a major role in how the industry marches forward. This is a must-see for anyone interested in technology, innovation, and our human desire for exploration.
​
• The city is also very well known for its eclectic collection of museums that offer visitors a time-bending journey through some of the most interesting periods of human history. Be sure to check out the Museum of Natural Science and the Museum of Fine Arts – both of which boast world-class features that you’re bound to enjoy.
​
• Then it’s time to take in some baseball at Minute Maid Park, home of the Houston Astros. The stadium is special because of its giant retractable roof, allowing for games to continue in all weather conditions, and it makes for a sports ground where the noise of the crowd roars from all angles. Don’t miss out on this one.
​
• If you’re looking for some performance art, why not try the Hobby Theater or the Music Box Theater. They’ve got great shows on all year round and no matter what you end up seeing, it’s bound to put a smile on your face.
​
• Last, but not least, be sure to indulge in some of the amazing food that Houston has to offer. Whether you’re in the mood for Malaysian street food at Phat Eatery, a one-of-a-kind tasting experience at March, or a traditional American barbeque at the Pit Room – you won’t be disappointed. Treat those tastebuds and explore the wide variety of food that you can enjoy in the city.
