\"\"\/<\/p>\n

Miles of paths guide bikers through Buffalo Bayou Park and over the bayou to reveal sweeping views of the Houston skyline. Here, bikers cross the Rosemont Bridge where local couples have attached hundreds of \u201clove locks\u201d to the railings.<\/p>\n

An urban greenspace just west of downtown Houston, Buffalo Bayou Park preserves and celebrates the city\u2019s rich history, culture, and wildlife along the banks of the bayou.
