"The 132-acre Houston Botanic Garden, which opened on September 18, 2020, feels like a lush oasis. It’s worth visiting for the sheer range of plants that reflect various Texas Gulf Coast habitats, from coastal prairie to woodland glades. With 2.5 miles of walking trails and six outdoor galleries filled with tropical, sub-tropical, and arid specimens, it's both playful and serious. Kids will enjoy the several interactive elements like a boardwalk maze around a lagoon. This is a place to reflect, meditate, and soak up some plant trivia." - Charu Suri
