Houston Live Cam

Houston is a large metropolis in Texas

A City of Great Discovery, Houston offers tremendous contrasts with something for everyone, from protected wildlife preserves to the world’s richest rodeo; from prestigious arts institutions to the center of American manned space flight. One of the world’s greatest urban centers and the largest city in Texas as well as the fourth-largest city in the U.S., Houston has no match.

The world capital of the international energy industry, Houston is also home to the world’s largest medical center, a global nexus for life-changing innovations in medicine. Houston is one of the country’s premier visual and performing arts centers, a pioneer in multicultural arts and a leading showcase for contemporary commercial architecture. The city is also the headquarters for America’s manned space-flight effort and home to the two-time world-champion Houston Rockets with perhaps the greatest center of all time, Hakeem Olajuwon.
