This parking is so beautiful! It has something for everyone. We visited in December and there were still so many people out and about. We will be coming back more often to enjoy the surroundings. I would love to ride the train and take out the pedal boats. Maybe my next review will include those.

Honestly such a goated place to go do nature stuff for free. Lots of ground to go explore, walk, chill, etc. The park is also very pretty and offers plenty of activities to do for free or pay a lil fee for (depending on what you do). Highly recommend checking out the playground, skipping out on the train ride lol, and chilling in the open space area to play or have a picnic.

Very good place with a lot of fun!! Beautiful scene, lake, trees, small train and huge grass land for picnic. Strongly recommend this park! And it is very close to Rice university only 5 mins walk. And there is a zoo and Japanese garden inside the park.

This park is so enjoyable. I've visited several times and never get bored! With a diverse range of wildlife and plant life, plus dedicated spaces for kids, there's plenty to see. You could easily spend an hour or more exploring the entire area, soaking in the scenery at your own pace.
