It’s true – everything really is bigger in Texas. Houston, the nation’s fourth-largest city, lives up to the promise with big-time attractions.

Space Center Houston, one of the city’s top attractions, is home to NASA Mission Control, International Space Station Mission Control and astronaut training center. Visitors are taken behind the scenes to NASA Johnson Space Center, as well as more than 400 space artifacts and numerous exhibits and attractions related to America’s past, present and future space program.

With five professional sports teams, a winning tradition and loyal fan-base, Houston is a premier destination for sports enthusiasts. If you are looking to get in on the action, Houston’s parks, golf courses, and nearby offshore fishing access and its favorable year-round weather make it an ideal location to get active. For a sport that you won’t find many places outside of Texas, visit the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.

Houston is the home to seven cultural districts, including a theater district and museum district and typically hosts over 20,000 plays, concerts, exhibits and other art programs a year. A vibrant, creative community is ready to welcome you to Houston.
