There’s something for everyone in the lively metropolis of Houston. The largest city in Texas and the fourth largest city in the US is a melting pot of many cultures, and you’ll be delighted by the unique blend of Southern, Western, Mexican, and international cultures. This dynamic city is the perfect place to let loose.

Houston defies Texas’s dry, barren stereotype with its surprisingly lush and green landscape. Nestled between two magnolia and cypress-lined bayous and bordered by a lush natural forest, Houston sprawls across 600 square miles. The subdivisions, strip malls, and freeways surround a bold and vibrant downtown featuring striking glass and metal towers, and some of Texas’s most original, bold architecture. There’s a skyscraper topped with a Mayan pyramid, a Gothic church styled bank, and two medical towers that are topped with big syringes! Throughout diverse and cosmopolitan Houston there are many fine museums, galleries, theaters, malls, eateries that cater to the backgrounds of the increasingly diverse population.
The climate is similar to that of Louisiana and Mississippi: moist and warm. The most temperate seasons to visit are Spring and Autumn, with temperatures around 80 degrees during the day and in the 50’s at night. There’s no snow in the winter, but it gets chilly, with highs around 60 degrees and lows of about 40 degrees. Summer is hot and humid, with daytime temperatures hovering around 100 degrees and humidity at around 90%. During this season, virtually every cubic inch of indoor space is air conditioned, so you’ll have no problem escaping the heat. No matter when you choose to visit, pack your just-in-case rain gear, as surprise cloudbursts and thunderstorms are short-lived but common.
