    Cute little park in Midtown with a fairly big green grassy area perfect for picnicking and a nice water feature to look at as well. You can purchase food at Rico's food stand which is located in the park and they also sell beer and wine. There is also a small fenced in dog park which is what primarily brought me here. They have a Yappy hour event every 4th Friday of the month from 4:30pm-6:30pm with doggie treats available and agility courses set up for your pups to try out. Added Bonus- they allow you to buy beer or wine from Rico's and bring it into the dog park!! Totally reminded me of Boneyard (oh how I miss that place). There's a dog water fountain in the dog park and poop bags available as well. The fact that the dog park itself is small is a positive for me- I liked being able to keep track of my 2 dogs at all times. And all the other owners were very attentive of their dogs as well- there were quite a few times dog fights were about to happen but the dog owners responsibly stepped in to break it up. The only negative to this park is parking. There's plenty of street parking but unfortunately it's all metered parking. If you can't find any street parking there's a (paid) garage a block away off Bagby. It's unfortunate I have to pay to park to go to a free public park. Nonetheless I will still be back with my dogs in tow! Next time I definitely need to check out Rico's.

    This is basically a dog park. Its cute to walk by to watch dog play. I mean the park is small. Yes there is a midtown sign. There is water and shade. I mean its good to chill and sit around.

    This is a tiny little park in midtown. It's probably best known for the huge midtown sign. We checked it out because of the "best advice I would give" chalk board they have up now (Dec 2016). Advice ranges from drink beer to follow your dreams to go vegan (my personal favorite). I don't think they have free parking around the area. We parked on the metered street right next to the park.

    Shaded, clean and safe gates for dogs. It's nothing big but (being biased) it's good for my corgi. Lol

    Since my last visit, they've added a sunshade above Midtown sign (I love when they get different artists to ass designs to it!).

    The Houston Cistern at Buffalo Bayou Park is not only an amazing piece of Houston history but also…read morea wonderful structure to tour. In a city that is known for tearing down and paving over so much of our history, it is wonderful that this was saved and has been made into a place that visitors can visit and experience. I went with some friends from Kingwood on a Photo Walk of the area, we were lucky that the light and sound experience was still going on, each column in the cistern has LED lighting that changes to the tune of some aethereal music playing silently, the acoustics of the cistern make it sound so beautiful and mesmerizing. When you purchase your ticket online you choose one of the available times, upon entry they give you 30 minutes, the time passed quickly. Be ready if you are taking pictures or better yet, a video. Smart phones work great but you might consider turning off auto focus and just focusing manually if you know how because when it gets dark for a moment and then the lights come on most cameras auto focus has to search for focus so it goes in and out of focus. When you leave, there is a skateboard park up above and worth some time for taking pictures of the acrobatic skating going on.

    What a time we had at this fabulous event. The weather was bad earlier that day so by the time we…read morearrived it was still a little bit damp. The event was called Diner en Blanc an all white exclusive event, with pictures, food, live bands, fashion shows and more. Their catering was ok but for 100 pp for food is a hard no for me. The group we were with was ok had higher hopes but that's the ultra friendly side of me talking It was at buffalo bayou park but because of the rain lots of people (Angela) clothes were filthy There was nothing missed, our people showed up and showed out. The live band was very good, music for all age groups. Now our people forget what copy paper white looks like, they clearly said no off white, beige, cream, egg shell but they had all shades of whitish

    Peaceful, zen, bit of nature within the museum district's Herman Park…read more Parking was free since we went on a Sunday and we were able to find a very close spot within the lot. We want on a day with gorgeous weather, not too hot and plenty of sunshine. We saw squirrels, turtles coyfish and various birds. There was a decent crowd but we were able to move around easily and get some cute pics. This is a beautiful weather day must.

    This was my first visit to the Japanese Garden in Houston, and it left a gentle impression on me. I…read morecame toward the tail end of winter, just as spring was teasing its way in. Here and there, I spotted a delicate cherry blossom and a few early blooms, though I wish I had visited at the peak of flower season. The garden itself is exquisitely designed and every corner seems crafted for peace, and I truly enjoyed the calm atmosphere. It felt like a small escape from the city hustle. That said, I did notice the cleanliness was a bit of an issue; the garden could definitely use some extra care to keep it pristine. Another small drawback was the restroom situation. There are only two available, and both were quite busy, so I ended up waiting a while and eventually decided it wasn't worth it. Still, the park draws a lovely crowd with people come to stroll, reflect, and soak in the beauty. If I'm in Houston again at a better time, I'll absolutely return to see the garden in full bloom. It has so much potential, and with a little more attention to detail, it could be a true hidden gem.
