Satisfy your curiosity about the inner workings of a city police department at the Houston Police Department Museum, featuring a free-of-charge walkthrough where you can explore on your own or join a group tour. As you walk through the museum, you will come across the Wall of Honor memorial that shows badges, uniforms, artifacts from the Honor Guard, SWAT, Mounted Patrol, and other equipment utilized over the years that honor the ultimate sacrifice made by those officers that gave their lives in the line of duty.
Glenwood Cemetery is one of Houston's historic landmarks that accommodates some of the most delightful statues and impressive landscapes that rival those of many arboretums, making it the perfect place for a quiet refuge and peaceful meditation amid inspiring natural beauty. Glenwood also provides a place for families, visitors, and community members to gather and host events, such as educational seminars, and is a place to research and connect with history. Many prominent Texans from the days of the Republic until the present are buried here, and the names on the elaborately carved marble and granite will remind you of the rich heritage.
Escape from the hustle and bustle of city life at the Houston Arboretum and Nature Center, where you can enjoy five miles of nature trails winding through native prairie, savanna, wetland, woodland, riparian habitats, and have ample opportunities for exciting wildlife sightings. Explore The Nature Center building, which features a Nature Shop filled with items for nature lovers of all ages, an interactive Discovery Room, Educational Exhibits, hands-on activities, live ambassador animals, biofacts, and a weekly botany display.
