WHAT TO VISIT IN HOUSTON
Houston downtown corridor, with its magnificent
glass-metal towers is an obligatory visit.
Institutions, museums, galleries, theatres and entertainment,
restaurants and malls are the trademark of downtown.
But
there is also the Museum District and the Rice
University district (with dozens of high ranked museums and
galleries), the Astrodome (the famous acclimatized
stadium), the Galleria hyper-mall in the west border of
downtown, the Montrose, a bohemian-cultural-entertainment
district (see the
Houston Press
for information on nightlife and entertainment in Houston), or
the Nasa Johnson Space Center, 25 miles south of the
city.
BEST TIME TO
VISIT HOUSTON, TEXAS
Houston
is a year-round destination, but Summer isn’t decidedly the best
season to visit it, if you consider the weather issue and want
to avoid heat
and humidity. Summers tend to be too hot and too humid, with
often violent (though brief) thunderstorms, strong winds and
heavy rain (especially in late summer). Besides, we shouldn’t forget:
Houston is in the hurricane region...
Spring and Fall are much better times to visit Houston. Temperatures are usually very agreeable in these
seasons.
Winter is also a good season to go to Houston. Days tend to be
mild, without violent or harsh weather conditions.
