Everything is bigger in Texas, and the Memorial Park in Houston is no exception; at over 1500 acres of land, this is one of the biggest municipal parks in our nation.
A favorite in Houston, Memorial Park caters to both locals and visitors alike and should prove a worthwhile visit while staying in the city.
Amenities include:
- A 600-acre golf course
- The Houston Arboretum and Nature Center
- A swimming pool
- Ball fields and courts
- Bike trails
- A fitness center
At almost three miles in width, the Memorial Park would be hard to miss, but just in case, it's address is 6501 Memorial Drive, west of Downtown Houston.
