Awesome place to come throughout the year. The City of Houston always host wonderful events throughout the year. This happens to be during the Christmas holidays.
It was a delightful experience watching Carols on the Green with Houston Grand Opera at Discovery Green. The atmosphere was festive, and the nearby convention center had a beautiful display of Christmas tree decorations that added to the charm. Since the park is in downtown Houston, parking can be a bit pricey unless you find street parking. We ended up using a lot at the corner of Lamar and San Jacinto, which charged $12 for the entire evening.
A great park for kids to play, relax, and have fun right in the heart of downtown. It has water splash area, so be sure to bring extra clothes for the kids. There’s also a small grass hill where children can slide down - bringing a piece of cardboard makes it even more fun. My kid had a wonderful time here, and it’s definitely worth a visit for families.
Nice green park beside downtown gives fresh breathing. The park has a splash pad for kids, lot of green space to relax and water for boating. This park also used to have social events, music and yoga sessions. Good place to relax.
