Great to go to on a Sunday free parking and then trolley to get you around with little ones. Also visited the Mexican Market and that is where they bought their souvenirs.

The Alamo is a must stop to understand the politics of the relationship of Mexico and what would become the state of Texas. Physcially it is underwhelming but the exhibitions inside are a great history lesson

If you go to San Antonio visit the Alamo. It is right downtown, and is worthy of your time. I have visited it many times, however in this last visit I was happy to see that it is being visited by lots of school groups, and is in good condition. You won't see John Wayne, but you will see a...

The Alamo is one of those places that I never tire of visiting. I am not sure how many times I have been to the Alamo over the years, but I know that I will keep coming back when in San Antonio if I have the opportunity. Parking is not easy, but is within walking distance. It is typical downtown...
