8 Best Parks in Houston

"The enjoyable and eclectic elements at Discovery Green, a 12-acre park situated across from the George R. Brown Convention Center, in downtown Houston, include interactive water features, eye-catching public art, and free community programming, such as writing workshops and workout classes. Although grounds are manicured, wild flora and fauna inhabit a one-acre lake that’s dotted with rentable kayaks and remote-controlled, battery-operated boats. Grab a bite at one of two restaurants (The Lake House, a fast-casual choice, or The Grove, a contemporary sit-down restaurant), then catch a ballgame at Minute Maid Park nearby." - Marcy de Luna
