Emancipation Park and Emancipation Community Center are located at 3018 Emancipation Ave in the Third Ward area of Houston. It is the oldest park in Houston and the oldest in Texas.
The 10-acre Emancipation Park was purchased by four former slaves in 1872 and served as a location to celebrate Juneteenth, the date in 1865 that marked the emancipation of African Americans in Texas. Until the 1950s, it was the only public park and swimming pool in Houston open to African Americans.
The new Emancipation Park is designed as an inter-woven tapestry of buildings and landscape celebrating the park's rich history and embracing the present and future of its community. Guests can enjoy refurbished landscapes, playgrounds, renovation of the two historic buildings and the addition of a new building and plaza. The old recreation center is now a beautiful Community Center and the Poole House was recently renovated and expanded as well.

Nestled among lush green vegetation of Buffalo Bayou Park, Waugh Drive Bridge rests over Buffalo Bayou, less than two miles west of Downtown Houston. The bat flights are amazing, winding along the bayou or through the skyscrapers across downtown. An estimated 250,000 Mexican free-tailed bats call the bridge home. The bat population fluctuates through the year, with the peak in the summer and early fall. A large population of bats continues to reside in the bridge through the winter months, resulting in awesome emergences on warm winter evenings. Upon emerging at sunset, the bats usually fly east along the bayou before dispersing. The best bat viewing locations are:
the viewing platform at the southeast corner of the bayou bank, next to the bridge (along Allen Parkway);
the northeast bank of the bayou, near the bridge(near Memorial Drive); and
on the east rail sidewalk of the bridge itself, looking directly down into the bayou channel.

Minute Maid Park is another must-see destination when you’re in Houston. The park is the home turf of the Houston Astros and offers so much more than a ballgame.
Minute Maid Park is unique for its retractable roof that keeps the noise inside and creates a more exciting atmosphere. Another reason the roof stays closed for most games is to keep the air-conditioned air in because of the withering Texas heat.
However, a 50,000 sq ft partitioned glass makes the sky visible. You can watch a game on Friday to experience the electrifying atmosphere firsthand.
Besides, you’ll also find unique eats around the grounds with a large food selection ranging from classic hot dogs to uber salad specials. The park sits over 40,000 fans, and even when the Astros aren’t taking to the field, you can still catch some high-quality concerts.

If you’re going to stay awhile in Houston, consider a day trip to Galveston. Galveston Bay has some of the best attractions in Texas. The barrier island gives your trip that change of scene, allowing you to relax on the sand or bask in the warm ocean.
Galveston is about 50 miles from Houston, with beaches that stretch for endless miles. There are various beaches to choose from depending on what you need.
For instance, couples and adult groups will find the East Beach ideal, with alcohol allowed on the beach. Families often drift towards Stewart Beach due to its diverse amenities, including a picnic area, concession stands, playground, and alcohol restrictions.
If you’d like to give the kids the thrill of their life, head towards the Historic Pleasure Pier at the Seawall Boulevard. Don’t let its small size fool you. The pier is filled with many thrill rides, including a Ferris wheel, rollercoaster, water slide, and carousel.
You’ll also enjoy the numerous arcade games. Galveston also has other places of interest like the Moody Gardens, where you’ll find a world-class golf course and aquarium for some aquatic fun.
Transportation is easy, courtesy of a trolley network connecting most of the attractions on the island. Once you get tired out of the outdoors, there’s no better place to refill that energy than The Strand for some food, drinks, and shopping.

This is a TEXAS tradition!
It’s an amusement park of a gas station, that I'm thrilled to be the first to introduce you. From the massive 120-pump vicinity to the cutesy home gifts to the unbeatable food selection, there's a reason why Buc-ee's is the most popular convenience store in Texas!
You gotta experience it to understand. 🤠
More of an attraction than a pitstop, the mega-mart leans into their beaver mascot proudly, offering every branded item imaginable, from beach towels to boxer shorts (truth be told, I've been living in my tie-dye Buc-ee's night set as of late). Once you meander past the aisles of candles, western wear, home decor items, and kids' toys, you can join the other road warriors huddled around the meat counter, watching as fresh brisket is carefully assembled into buns.
Pulled pork sandwiches and potato chips are prepared on site, while the bakery and fudge counter will send you off with all kinds of sweet treats. Signature items include Beaver Nuggets (puffed corn nuggets with a crunchy brown sugar caramel coating), an assortment of Czech-style kolaches, and over a dozen flavors of their famed beef jerky. Dr. Pepper Icee's and cinnamon pecans similarly lure drivers off the highways, but personally, I think the banana bread and chocolate chip cookies are two underrated gems.
