Houston is a laid-back metropolis in southeast Texas. It’s connected to Galveston Bay, and just minutes from the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico. This city is a high-powered, high-cultured, boot-scooting, pick-up truck kind of town, where visitors can enjoy shopping and take in museums during the day, and enjoy happy hours on leaf-shaded decks in the afternoon. With a world-renowned entertainment and restaurant scene, visitors will have the opportunity to revel in cultural and culinary bliss every night. Houston has a bevy of attractions that bring in tourists from all around the world, such as the Space Center Houston, Museum of Natural Science, Discovery Green, Children’s Museum, and Museum of Fine Arts.
