Fine Arts
The Houston Theater District covers 17 blocks from the city center and is exceeded in a number of seats only by existing ones in New York City.
In Houston, there are professional companies in the four disciplines of the performing arts: ballet, opera, symphony, and theater. Other venues outside the Theater District, such as Houston's Bilingual Talent and the Miller Outdoor Theater, are also ideal for enjoying good plays and other performing arts.

Shopping
Considered the fashion capital of the American South, Houston houses stores for all tastes and budgets. You can start your shopping excursion at The Galleria, the largest and most famous shopping center in Texas, and continue through Uptown Park, Highland Village, Rice Village, and the outlets.
If you visit us in 2016 we highly recommend the recently renovated River Oaks District, although it is full of exclusive names such as Cartier, Dior, and Chopard, it is a multi-purpose development designed not only for buyers but also for anyone who just wants to go for a walk, eat something and get distracted.
