Are you wondering what the downtown looks like in Houston? Well, I did and I thought it would be big and crowded and there would be a lot of people there. You know the reality is? The reality is that it is not big at all, comparing with Shanghai or Hongkong, it is nothing. You could even count how many buildings there were, and they are not very tall.

Why? I asked, and the reason is that downtown is nothing but a working place, people do not really live there. On Sunday, you barely see people in downtown, almost all the shops are closed. When I was there, I could not find a place to eat, it is unbelievable. However, there are a lot, a lot of parking lots, they are big, I mean huge that the whole building is a parking lot.

BIG! That’s what it is!
