Overview
Take a trip to Houston on your United States vacation.
Perched close to the Gulf of Mexico, Houston is a Texan megacity with a lot of souls. It is the city that birthed Beyoncé, after all. Houston enjoys vibrant music, theatre, and culinary scene with a number of cultural influences that can be seen across its bustling neighbourhoods. The booming Theatre District contains a number of venues for drama, comedy, opera, ballet, and more, bringing sophisticated acts to the southwest. The Museum of Fine Arts and the Contemporary Arts Museum are cosmopolitan meccas of some of America’s most enchanting and thought-provoking collections, making Houston a great destination for art aficionados.
As one of America’s most diverse cities, Houston has fostered its own culinary fusions, with strong Mexican, Vietnamese, Czech, Spanish and American influences all blending together. With options like breakfast tacos, queso, and Viet-Cajun crawfish, your palate will rejoice at the innovative flavour and boundless creativity within the city’s eateries, one tamale or bowl of pho at a time.
If you needed further proof that Houston is really out of this world, the city is also Earth’s capital of space exploration. The infamous line Houston, we have a problem, refers to the communications between Apollo 13 astronauts and the NASA Mission Control Centre based in the city itself. Visitors can explore the universe from the comfort of their own galaxy at Space Centre Houston, featuring exciting space-themed exhibits and experiences you won’t find elsewhere on the planet.
