  • NileGuide Expert Says:

    The best part of this park and playground is that it is free! It is big enough to keep your kids occupied for hours. At dusk it is a romantic place with water features and of course there is the view from the top of the tower, which is spectacular day or night.


  • Description:

    • Originally created as the grounds for the 1968 Worlds Fair, this park is a favorite of locals and visitors alike. Stroll through the park's 12 acres of fountains, pools, and beautifully landscaped grounds or cavort on the Downtown All Around Playground. Built entirely by volunteers, this playground features wooden play areas designed by kids, including a space tunnel and a castle— perfect for letting little imaginations run wild. Also located on the park grounds are the Institute of Texan Cultures and the Tower of the Americas.
