Today I am going to talk about the previous city I lived in for over six years. Houston!

Houston will always have a special place in my heart and it is truly the city I grew *up* in.

I was about 27 when I moved to Houston with the idea of going to law school instead I went to paralegal school and started my career as a paralegal in litigation and family law. I will always love Houston and miss it, it was also the first time I moved out completely on my own and was forced to grow up.

With all that being said Today I want to talk about the Top Ten Attractions in Houston according to me. This is a list in no particular order but rather just a list that *I* think is my top ten.

All opinions are my own. 

The History Museum of Natural Science

I went here once on a date. LOL I fell in love with the Museum not the guy. Ha! This museum is expensive but very worth it. I want to take Ryan to this Museum later this year hopefully. 

Houston Zoo

I grew up going to this Zoo so it will always have a special place in my heart. If you Visit Houston The Zoo is a must see.

Downtown Area

Houston’s downtown is amazing. So many bars, food halls, restaurants, hotels with views. Everything you could imagine. I love Houston downtown and when I lived there I enjoyed spending time in downtown. I can’t wait to show Ryan Houston and Texas in general. 

The Beach

Okay okay!?! Houston doesn’t have a beach Technically. Galveston does and I love it. You can drive your vehicle right to the beach. Ryan can’t wrap his brain around that one. We are used to cliffs on our beaches in California. I love the beaches in Texas because you can pitch a tent, spend the night and barbeque all right there by the ocean.  I just think the Beaches in Texas are unique and family friendly.  Everyone should visit the Beaches in Texas at least once.

The Galleria Mall

The Houston Galleria is one of a kind and has everything you could think of including a hotel. A ice rink, any store it even has Nobu in the mall.  Speaking of food my next one just makes so much sense.

Sprinkles Cupcake ATM

I know technically this ATM is at more locations than the Houston one but I have only visited the Houston Sprinkles Cupcake ATM so I am adding it to my list. It is a genius idea!  I have been known to visit the ATM  in the middle of the night just for a Cupcake or two.  

Discovery Green Park

This park is brilliant. The parking is underground and the park is on top and it is beautiful and surrounded by nature. I loved going on walks here and clearing my head or taking my dog to the dog park here. It is a unique park and a must visit for tourists.

Houston Rodeo and Livestock

This is a Houston institution. It is probably the biggest event of the year and probably the state. Everyone comes to this it is a huge event for Houston. I never was able to go but I do want to attend one day. 

NASA Space Center

This needs no explanation. I put it here because I feel like if you are going to visit Houston for vacation then you MUST go here. Visiting Nasa Center is a must especially if you are a science nerd. 

 

Breweries

There are so many different Breweries in Houston and I went to many. A lot of them are outdoors and they have games and live music, most of them have food. I love Breweries so I was would go to different ones around the city with friends. 

If you are interested in visiting this massive city in Texas then I would go to the Houston Chamber of Commerce for more info.

That wraps up my Top Ten Houston Attractions!
