Review & FAQ:
Hermann Park is a delightful family-friendly park in Houston's Museum District, located near the Texas Medical Center and Rice University. The park, which was originally developed in 1914, offers all-ages attractions such as the Houston Zoo, the Museum of Natural Science, and the iconic Hermann Park Mini Train, which runs for 1.8 miles throughout the park and offers accessible boarding. At Lake Plaza, visitors can rent pedal boats at the facility's boathouse or use shaded terrace dining areas for enjoying the park's full-service food pavilion. McGovern Centennial Gardens, opened to the public in 2014, offer an interactive family garden, a landscaped rose garden, and a pine walk. Other attractions include a Japanese garden, an outdoor theater, and a community center.
