I took my niece here when she cam in town. It's a pretty park, but it's in midtown, where finding parking is difficult. Also, there were so many children there, it was not fun. The playground was also small and crowded to the point that the whole experience was not enjoyable.

I have not walked around the entire park, but the spots I've been to are very nice. There are several festivals held here regularly, and I plan to attend soon.

This is one of Houson's newer parks. It's very easy to get there, the free green bus stops here and is walkable from Downtown. There is a little cafe, a stage where events are sometimes held and a pretty lake.

We were shocked at how tiny it was!... More

Plenty of families enjoying the fountains, people with their pets, and even a talk on Houston Architecture was well attended by people sprawled out on blankets with picnics. Just idyllic. Our 15 year old thought it was the coolest... More

Right down town. Lots of green. People enjoying themselves. Just across from the George R. Brown Convention Center with good food a short walk away

We stayed at Hilton Americans and spent a lot of time walking around Discovery Green and playing on the play ground. Also we were there during Family day which was great - lots of free activities including bouncy houses which our 5 year old loved. As a visitor to Houston we felt really lucky to be able to share in... More
