I ka hoʻonohonohoʻana o nā hoahānau Allen i Houston i ka makahiki 1836, ua hoʻokaʻawale lākou i nā'āpana'āina liʻiliʻi e lilo i hale pālahalaha o ke kūlanakauhale. Ma kahi kokoke iʻelua mau kenekulia ma hope mai, ua kapaʻiaʻo kēlā'āina - i kapaʻiaʻo Market Square Park - ke hoʻomau i kāna mau kuʻuna lōʻihi he wahi hōʻiliʻili no ka poʻe o Houston. ʻO ka lumi kahi hoʻokahi wale nō'āpana'āpana o ke kaona, akā naʻe i nā paʻi ma kahi ton o nā hanana punahele, nā mea pono, a me nā'ōmaʻomaʻo nani - maikaʻi loa ma ke kauhale.
Eia ka mea e pono ai keʻike i ka wā e hoʻolālā ai i kahi kipa i Houston's Market Square Park.
Mōʻaukala
ʻO ke ala i ka wā i kūkulu aiʻo John K. a me Augustus C. Allen iā Houston me ka manaʻo e lilo ke kūlanakauhale i puʻuwai o ka Repubalika nuiʻo Texas. Ua hoʻokaʻawale lākou i kahi'āina ma ka mokuʻoihana o Houston i kēia manawa no ka kūkuluʻana i kahi kāpena nui o ka'āina - he mea hōʻino wale ia i ka laweʻana o Austin i ka hanohano kūʻokoʻa ma hope o nā makahiki he nui ma hope. Ua kapaʻiaʻo "Congress Congress" i ka manawa i hoʻomakaʻia ai ka manawa, a liloʻo ia i kikowaena nui no kaʻoihana kālepa o ke kūlanakauhale, a ma hope aku i kapaʻiaʻo "Market Square"ʻaʻole i lōʻihi ma hope o kona hoʻokumuʻiaʻana. ʻO kekahi hale nui e noho ana ma kahi kūkele'āina a me ke kūlanakauhale nui i kūkuluʻia ma luna o ka pūnaewele, aʻo nā poʻe noho a me nā malihini hoʻi e'ākoakoa ma laila e kūʻai, kūʻai aku, a kālepaʻana i nāʻano waiwai a pau, a me ka lawelaweʻana i nāʻoihana me ke kūlanakauhale.
ʻEkolu ahi aʻoi aku ma mua o hoʻokahi haneli i hala aku,ʻo ka hope o ka makahiki 1960 he meaʻole ka'āina iʻole he wahi kaʻa no nā makahiki he nui.
Ua hanaʻia kekahi pāʻoihana ma ka hopena o nā makahiki 1980 e hoʻopū hou i ka lumi i loko o kahi hōʻike hōʻikeʻike o kaʻoihana o ke kaiaulu, akā, i ka wā i pau ai ke kumukūʻai o kaʻaila,ʻo ka hailona - a me ka nui o nā wahi a puni - ua hāʻule hou.
ʻO ka Pākē Kū'ē Kū'ē o kēia lā,ʻo ia ka hopena o ka hana hoʻoponopono i hanaʻia e ke kūlanakauhale a me nā hoa'āina o ka makahiki 2010.
Mālama i ka nānāʻana i ka moʻaukala me ka nod a hiki i kēia manawa, nā pūnaewele hoʻolālā hou i hoʻoiliʻia o ka moʻaukala o ka wahi, me nā hana hou o kēia manawa e hoʻihoʻi hou i kahi'āpana i kahi wahi hoʻouluulu.
Nānā
Ma waho aʻe o kekahi wahi'ōmaʻomaʻo, pua nani, a me nā kiʻi hoʻonani, nā hale pāʻani hoʻi he mau hale:
- ʻO kahi pālio'īlio leʻaleʻa i hoʻokaʻawaleʻia iʻelua mau'āpana no nā'īlio liʻiliʻi a nui
- ʻO nā lumiʻauʻau a me ka hale holoi lima
- ʻO Niko Nikoʻo kahi haleʻai Greek-American
- ʻO kahi noho nui, e like me nā wahi i uhiʻia a uhiʻia
Ka mea e hana
Hāʻawiʻo Market Square Park i ka papa piha o nā hanana a me nā papahana i kēlā me kēia mahina, akā he mau mea leʻaleʻa ka mea e hiki ai i nā malihini ke hana ma ka papa i kēlā me kēia lā, i ka makahiki a pau, e like me:
- E nānā i ka Hale Hōʻailona Hīkiʻi: Ke noho nei kēia hae ma luna o ka hale o ke kūlanakauhale i kūkuluʻia ma ka pā ma mua o ka halaʻana o ka makahiki 1960 i puhiʻia ka hale i ka lepo. I kēia manawa, ke kū neiʻo ia he hōʻailona i ke ola o ka papa i ka wā i hala aku nei ma keʻano he hale aupuni a me ke kūlanakauhale nui.
- E Holo i ka Moʻolelo Mōʻaukala: Ua hoʻokomoʻia nā hapa liʻiliʻi o ka moʻolelo o ka pūnaewele ma ke ala hele wāwae ma waho o ka pāka'īlio, e like me nā koena o nā hale i wāwahiʻia i hoʻohanaʻia i ka papa.
- E kipa aku i ka Laura Lauren: ʻO kēia māla mahalo ma ka Hale Congress Congress he hōʻailona mahalo ia i nā hanana i ka lā 11 o Kepakemapa, 2001, i ka manawa i make aiʻo Houston Lauren Catuzzi me kona mau hoa kaʻa ma United Flight 93.
- E nānā i nā'ōlelo a Mose: Ua piha ka papa i ka nani nani, akā,ʻo kaʻoi aku o nā maka i ka mosaic punahele a me nā papa piha e pili ana i ka alanui Preston i lilo i hoʻokahi o nā hiʻohiʻona kaulana a (me Instagramable).
Nā hanana
ʻO ka papa he hale no nā hanana he nui i loko o ka makahiki, e pili ana i nā'ahamele, nā kiʻi waho, BINGO, a me nā papa hana. He wahi hālāwai maʻamau nō ia no nā kaola e like me nā hui kaiaulu. ʻAʻole i loaʻa kahi kūʻai hale kūʻaiʻo kahi kaʻawale no nā puke kūʻokoʻa, akā i nā manawa a pau, e kūkulu kahi papa i kahi hanana nui e hoʻomanaʻo i kekahi mea nui i loko o ke kūlanakauhale, e like me ka Superbowl.
Loaʻa i laila
ʻOiaiʻaʻole kahi kaʻa kaʻa ma kahi kokoke i ka papa, ua hoʻolakoʻia nā kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa i waho o ka hola 6 pm a me ka lā Sābati a pau. Inā makemakeʻoleʻoe e hakakā e loaʻa kahi wahi kaʻawale ma ke kūlanakauhale, hiki iāʻoe ke koho i kahi o nā kaʻaʻoi aku e pili ana, e like me ka hoʻolimalimaʻana i ke kaʻa.
Ke kū nei kahi keʻena BCYcle ma waho o ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike ma ka'ākau hikina hikina o ka pā. Kūkuluʻia ka Pākeʻaiʻo Market Square e kokoke ana i ka METRORail Red Line laina o Houston, he papa mai ka Preston Station, a kokoke i kahi mau mīkini METRO, me ke kaʻa GreenLink liʻiliʻi.
Nā mea e hana nei
Ke pauʻoe i kaʻimiʻana i Market Square Park, eʻikeʻoe e nānā i kekahi mau mea nui'ē aʻe e like me :.
Aia ka moku'āinaʻo Houston i kekahi o nā hui moʻomeheu punahele o ke kūlanakauhale,ʻo ia hoʻiʻo Houston Symphony, Houston Ballet, Houston Grand Opera, Alley Theatre, a me Hobby Center. Hoʻokahi wale nō lima o nā kūlanakauhale maʻAmelika Huipūʻia e hoʻonani i nāʻoihana kūlana paʻa mau no nāʻoihanaʻoihana nui loa - ballet, opera, mele, a me ke keaka - aʻo Houston kekahi o lākou. ʻO ka mea nui aku,ʻo Houston's Grand Opera ka huiʻoihana opera wale nō e lanakila iʻelua mele Emmy,ʻelua makana Grammy, a me Tony.
ʻO HoustonʻO ka Aquarium
ʻO kekahi mau poho ma'ō aku o ka bayou,ʻo ka aquarium o Houston e hāʻawi aku i nāʻano holo moana, nā pāʻani hula, a me nā kaʻa hoʻokele. E nānā pono i ka pae manō, i kahi e hiki ai i nā malihini ke hele i ke kaʻaahi ma kahi'ōmole'onike aniani a nānā i nāʻano mano likeʻole mai nāʻaoʻaoʻekolu. ʻO ka kiʻi nui no ka aquarium, akā,ʻaʻole ia he holoholona e hoʻohuiʻia i ka wai, akā heʻeleʻele keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo kokoke i ka hopena o nā hōʻike mau.
ʻO kēia kahua pāʻani 12-ʻehā - kahi i hoʻonohonohoʻia ma ke kauhale - he nui o nā mea nui e hana ai no kaʻohana a pau, e like me ka pālio kahu, wahi pāʻani, ke kai liʻiliʻi, ka pīpī pīpī, ka hana pāʻani, nā lumi heluhelu, a me nā papa hana kiʻi lōʻihi. ʻO ka waiwai waiwai o nā mea lawelawe, me kahi kālena hoʻolālā o ka hanana i hoʻopihaʻia, e maʻalahi i kahi o nā wahi kūponoʻole loa e hele ai i Houston .
Ma kahi kaʻawale e kaʻawale ana mai Market Square Park e noho ana he kahua hoʻolimalima a me kahi hoʻolālā he 130,000 kapuaʻi kahi kahi kaulana no ka pō o ka pō, nāʻahaʻaina mua, a iʻole ka pō o kaʻohana ma ke kūlanakauhale. ʻO nā lumi i kahi kiʻi kiʻiʻoniʻoni, kahi pāʻani mele, a me nā haleʻaina, a me kahi lumi papaʻa nui e hale pinepine ai i nā hale pule a me nā hanana kūikawā.
