Montrose is Houston's queer neighbourhood, with old bungalows, murals and patios that stay busy until late. Spend the afternoon at the Menil and lie on its lawn, then walk Buffalo Bayou Park as the skyline lights up behind the trees. After dark, head up Washington Avenue to Pearl Bar, the city's lesbian bar, with DJs, karaoke and a big patio in its new home.
In April the Art Car Parade rolls through town with hundreds of painted, glittered and very strange cars. Any other weekend, a long Montrose brunch is plenty.
