Upstairs is a nice pavilion with breeze to eat from one of their food trucks. The tour guide didn't check tickets and I think there may have been some freeloaders on our tour. 3 food trucks today. Plenty of parking in their free adjacent lot at noon on a Saturday and still has spaces at 2 pm when we left.

Cistern itself is a very brief tour but interesting to look at it. A bit pricey, in my view, for what you get. Still, if you're a visitor and looking for something to do, not bad.However, we had our car smashed and a small backpack stolen out of it while there. Be careful, and make sure anything - even a small, nondescript backpack - is secured in the trunk (if your car has one).

This is a really cool park that I will definitely return to explore more of. Went for Jazz In The Park recently and the vibe was chill. Being newbie, I wasn’t prepared for the parking limitations up close and I would definitely bring my cooler . Overall the park was clean, they had food trucks out front and there was no drama.

Perfect for bike riding, a picnic in the park, a hike, or just soaking up some views and sunshine. There are statues every there, water fountains, and much more.

AaAaAAA-Aaa-aaa-aaa-aaa-aa-aa-a-a-aThis place is an amazing treasure that I had no idea what it was for- or why Houston had it, or that it even existed! You Yelpers have friends in low places- the lowest of Houston! This below ground cistern holds millions of gallons of water that was originally supposed to be for drinking, but Houston got too big to try and get all the city's drinking water in one spot, so it's sort of a relic. They keep a few inches of water in the bottom to keep the concrete in good condition, but other than that, it's mostly empty. But you can go on tours, and check out this architectural design wonder, and see how the concrete and light and sound can all play tricks on the senses. It looks like it's in infinitely deep pool of water, or the echos go on for almost twenty seconds is one of the strangest phenomenon I've ever felt! Totally worth it. You have to book tickets on the city website. They have frequent tours that last about 35-40 minutes. Totally worth it. Show up a bit early to make sure you get good parking, which can be challenging in this park.

First time coming here with the family. Nice little lawn on top and a skatepark nearby. There's a bunch of food beverage and snack wagons in the area. The best part is paying $10 per person to attend an amazing experience in an old water reservoir. It's not as huge as I thought, but it's still cool. It's dark down there, but the staff giving the tour did an awesome job talking about the history and using her light to give us some optical illusions. The echo is amazing and cool. I forgot the name of the woman who gave the tour, but she also sang a song that she wrote in German and the echo was pretty beautiful.The parking lot is super small, but you can also find street parking. Staff are friendly and fast and there's a public restroom in the area.

What can I say. This is one of houstons best parks. Always such a good time here from the people watching to the activities. It's a must do park.
