Where to Eat, Stay and Play in the Museum District
Houston’s Museum District is where art, science, and culture come together in one walkable, tree-lined neighborhood. Home to world-class institutions like the Museum of Fine Arts, the Houston Museum of Natural Science, and the Contemporary Arts Museum, it’s a haven for curious minds of all ages. Beyond the galleries, Hermann Park invites visitors to unwind among gardens, trails, and the serene McGovern Lake, while the Houston Zoo adds family-friendly fun just steps away. With cozy cafés, stunning architecture, and endless inspiration around every corner, the Museum District is where Houston’s creative spirit truly shines.
