We screamed during the walking Tour in the Dark Houston Underground Buffalo Bayou Cistern.

An underground cistern was used for decades to hold a large portion of Houston’s public drinking water. After it sprang an irreparable leak, the 85,000 square-foot public reservoir was drained and sat unused and practically forgotten about. The hypnotic beauty of the chamber is reminiscent of Istanbul’s Basilica Cistern but with thin rays of light from open hatches above that illuminate the wide expanse.
The Cistern also houses a number of rotating art instillations from artists who make the space their own with light and sound pieces.
