It´s ´play juice ball!´ at Houston´s Minute Maid Park

Home to Major League Baseball´s Houston Astros, this air-conditioned, 41,000-seat stadium named after a frozen fruit juice company (because sure) is located on the northeast edge of downtown and has a retractable roof, and even when it's shut, a 50,000-square-foot glass covering provides great views of the skyline. On its west side, a replica of a 19th-century locomotive comes alive when the Astros come onto the field, after a player hits a home run, and when the home team is victorious. The 2023 season runs through September, and visitors can take year-round guided tours ranging from one to three hours (prices vary).
