One of Houston’s defining traits is that it is one of the top cities in the country when it comes to the amount of natural space per resident. No matter where you go, there’s someplace nearby where you can spend some time in nature. Bring along that special someone and make a date of it, enjoying the outdoors while talking and getting to know more about each other. LakeHoustonPark is a great spot to visit, especially if you enjoy wildlife spotting. Or check out the ArmandBayouNatureCenter a little ways outside of the city. Or visit the Houston Arboretum and get the chance to learn more about many animals while viewing them in their natural habitats. There are also plenty of smaller spots, like parks and nature trails, so the true outdoor enthusiasts can find date destinations for months to come.
