    My pop and pup

    I loved this place! You can drive up and have your own single parking space that designates your area to fish by the pond. There is also a picnic table and tash cans. Has everything you need in an area for fishing. Super relaxing and quiet.. you have to make sure you go early or go towards the early evening to grab a spot.. there will be ppl waiting to grab a spot!

    Beware of the angry bugs!! We went down the nature trail and it was very spacious plenty of room for jogging or walking. But for me! NEVER AGAIN. Oh hell nahhhh. I had on some shorts that barely went past my knees and the these HUGE flying bugs felt the need to congregate behind my knees as I walk. I took off running they followed me. I started swatting them. I guess they thought it was a game because they kept coming back! Matter of fact, they invited their buddies. It went from 3 bugs to 20. Oh hell nahhhhh. From now on I'm wearing some pants, tight pants, joggers or leggings because them ugly things thought my leg was a d*mn toy. Oh hell nahhhhh. Other than that the park is very nice. Plenty of port-a-potties throughout. plenty of parking space. Plenty of nature trails. Its quite lovely just beware of the angry bugs!

    Great park! I loved the access to the river for photos and the San Jac trail was nice but be warned that at least 2 miles of this trail is NOT in the woods, it gets very hot. The dogs are allowed on the river with a 4-6 ft leash, was a great way for them to cool off. We had a great time, just wish I had realized that the trail wasn't completely shaded by trees. Was a fun find!

    The fishing was great here! That's the only thing we did so I can't add to other space. The lakes were nice and the breeze and weather was perfect! The fish were jumping all day. We caught catfish, crappie and sunfish. It's a nice spot and it was quiet and didn't have a lot of bugs.

    Restrooms on west side of park. Otherwise there's only port-a-potties.

    Buffalo Bayou Park - Ripples and Reflection in the Buffalo Bayou Cistern

    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.
