[2025 Houston Attraction] Travel Guide for Buffalo Bayou Park (Updated Jul)

#summervacay One of my favorite places to spend a Houston summer afternoon is Buffalo Bayou Park. The green spaces stretch along the bayou with downtown views, bike trails, paddleboard rentals, and public art. I went kayaking at sunset and it felt like a secret side of the city—calm and connected to nature. The park also has cool features like the Cistern and bat-watching at dusk under Waugh Bridge. A total summer vibe. #summervacay
