Best Things to Do or Explore in Houston

Impressive collection of art - often noted for surrealism - housed in a "neighborhood" of buildings. Don't miss the Dan Flavin gallery (shown in the photo).

Truly a zoological garden, with beautiful vegetation - a favorite gathering place for Houstonians of all ages- ride the Wildlife Carousel and the park train!

The Rothko Chapel Non-denominational sanctuary inspired by works from American abstract expressionist Mark Rothko. Within walking distance after visiting the Menil.

The best thing to happen to downtown Houston since the light rail. On weekends they show free movies on the lawn. Tons of free activities at Disco Green.

Perhaps one of the most unusual places I've ever seen. A true testament to oranges and human individuality - not to be missed by any art enthusiast.

MFAH Fantastic collection of a wide range of art. A great place to cool off on a hot summer day.

HMNS is one of the best museums in town - the Gem and Jewelry exhibit is a short stop but breathtaking... And maybe you'll get some ideas!

Take a walk through Hermann Park - especially the Japanese garden and rose garden... If it's summer, save it till evening and see a Shakespeare in the Park play...
