Welcome to Houston
Everything is big in Texas. Houston is no exception as it is Texas’ largest city and the fourth largest city in the U.S. In this urban metropolis, southern hospitality and rich history meet modern city life. Shoppers, sports fans, history buffs, outer space enthusiasts and music lovers will all feel at home in Bayou City, a nickname given to Houston for its many surrounding waterways.
Perhaps most famous for pioneering space exploration and NASA developments, Space Center Houston and the Johnson Space Center showcase many exhibits, films and activities of the United States space program. View the Mercury 9 capsule, Gemini 5 capsule, Apollo 17 command module, Saturn V and the Astronaut Gallery, or hop on the NASA Tram Tour for a behind-the-scenes look.
Shoppers will be delighted to find a good mix of high-end designer stores to unique locally-owned boutiques in Houston. Sports fans won’t go unmatched in this southern city. Be sure to catch an exciting game from one of the 6 major sports team franchises or 34 minor league and semi-pro sports teams. Cheer on the Houston Texans (NFL), Houston Astros™ (MLB) , Houston Rockets (NBA), Houston Dash™ (NWSL), Houston Dynamo (MLS) or the Scrap Yard Dawgs (NPF).
