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.

tripadvisorThe Hemisfair is currently being expanded and remodeled. For the looks of it, it seems like it will make this area look great. I can't wait to come back and see it complete.
MoreWe came to have brunch at Box St. and enjoyed ourselves here while waiting. Loved the environment! Everyone around seemed to be keeping busy while having fun. I would also like to mention that face painting and HENNA with Lily (near the music in a tent) was definitely the highlight! Highly recommend!!
MoreWe would have liked to see more but a big chunk of the place was reserved for a large private party event. What we saw was very nice!
Morewe walked from our hotel with the aid of mapsgoogle. It kept telling us we were there but alas, finally figured out it was a construction zone so we made our way to the Tower of America feature......the area around all this is lovely (except for the construction) I was not so interested in the tower, issues with heights but the structure is pretty impressive. My map showed waterfalls which I did not see in any other literature about the park and man, they are really cool man made water features, cascades adjacent to the tower. It was a fun outing and easy walk from the river walk.
MoreREALLY good food and the View was excellent! It was fun watching the city as I ate mid-day. I Highly recommend!
