13 picks · walking from George R. Brown

Start at George R. Brown Convention Center or Market Square Park. Downtown is spread out: check the complete out-and-back estimate before a short conference break. Convention-district redevelopment, freeway work, and event closures can change pedestrian routes, especially toward EaDo. Allow for heat, rain, and the entrance your event is using; bayou paths can close after severe weather. Walks are approximate. Time filters include a visit, the return walk, and a 10-minute buffer. Hours and wait times can change.

Five stops. One good story.

Collect moments, not conference swag.

Take the downtown photo hunt. No app, tickets, or purchases required. Tap each one when you've got the shot.
