17 Best Things to Do in Houston

"Rice's picturesque campus is the setting for "Twilight Epiphany," American artist James Turrell's outdoor bi-level structure that has an aperture that allows visitors to watch an LED light sequence that’s timed to sunrise and sunset. Free advance online reservations are required, but seating is open. You can sit in the ground-level pavilion or head upstairs to the viewing platform for the show, which lasts about 45 minutes. Both levels have built-in curved concrete benches that allow for lounging and looking up at Turrell’s sequence that bathes the roof with vivid colors that change as the sun moves." - Charu Suri
