    What makes it fun

Built in 1985 and named for renowned developer Gerald D. Hines, this architectural marvel features a 64-foot-tall semicircular fountain that gushes with over 11,000 gallons of water per minute. The tranquil sound of the falls and the surrounding oak-shaded green space create an ambiance that’s both mesmerizing and memorable. Whether you’re sharing a picnic on the lawn or posing for a photo with your sweetheart, the Waterwall is the perfect place to let your love flow.

    Houston has a beautiful place that's a must-see. Architecturally, it's the result of very detailed work and aesthetics; the waterfall looks different from every angle. You'll experience a visual shift in perspective. I highly recommend it.

    On our way to buy all the supplies we needed, we stumbled upon this waterfall right in the middle of the city. It's so beautiful, so pretty, and lots of people go there to visit, but most of them are tourists. I didn't see a single shop around where we took the pictures, but the walk and the intense sun were worth every drop of sweat 💦 just to visit this place. If you'd spent money on Uber, you wouldn't have bought anything else. You have to suffer some things to deserve others, without a doubt.

    A great spot for a photo, that's all you'll see, and don't even think about parking in a prohibited area because the tow trucks are ready to pick you up.

    The waterfall being the main attraction of the park makes for nice pictures and is just an amazing sight to see. The park itself is nice to relax there is a calm atmosphere. When in Houston a definite visit to make.

    Very impressive fountain! Great place to take visitors. Parking in nearby garage is only $3 for 30 min. The mist from fountain cooled us off.

    It’s a frequent to go place for me, it’s a beautiful view though it’s not the natural water wall but beautifully built multi story sculptural fountain, can literally spend hours just watching and listening the soothing sound of the water! Stunning place for photo shoots, dry picnic, walking and many more!!

    Magnificent and truly impressive fountain. But the water is not flowing all the time. And even during operational hours, there can just be a dry wall with no waters, perhaps they are doing some maintenance. But the worst things is that there is no way for you check if any one is doing maintenance or if the water is flowing anywhere on the web.
