Houston

Tucked along Buffalo Bayou on Texas’s Gulf Coastal Plain, Houston is a place whose character is shaped by low-lying waterways and its connection to the Gulf. Downtown’s towers rise near the bayou’s wooded banks, while Buffalo Bayou Park brings trails and public art into the urban core. Houston’s Museum District includes the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston and the Menil Collection, reflecting the city’s major role in the arts. In the southeast, NASA’s Johnson Space Center has trained astronauts and directed human spaceflight missions since the 1960s; Space Center Houston interprets that legacy. The city is also a major centre for energy, medicine and port commerce through the Houston Ship Channel.
