Water Wall

Tourist attraction

👍👍 Definitely a fun spot to check out if you are in Houston! It’s a touristy spot because it has an insane amount of water that falls from the great heights, it is a man-made waterfall that is pretty spectacular to see. It’s also really close to the Galleria which is fun to be close by. Highly recommen...

Independence Plaza

Museum

👍 A must see if visiting Houston. Large exhibits with a lot to see. I wish we would have visited during the week because it was very busy and there was a lot of children running around. The food court was healthy. I really enjoyed my visit but missed a lot because of the crowd.
