The Alamo, San Antonio

you could not take pictures inside and they really did not explain what went on at it.

well i love my town.&& yes we do need to get all this graffitti cleaned.there are aartist that need to be found out there.its not just letters these kids no how to do more..but there are alot of toys out there..the alamo is beatiful and its history so hunn get over it if it overrated

I did like the information they gave about the last stand at the Alamo. I am from San Antonio and have always enjoyed visiting the Alamo. Every time I have visitors from out of town I always try to take them to visit the Alamo

I was very disappointed. When you go into the Alamo there really wasn't anything of interest to see. Don't waste your money or time. I recommend just driveing by slowly and take a quick look that's about as exciting or interesting as it gets.

So much history i love everything about it just need to extend the hours longer.

The Alamo was great. The only bad was the surronding area. The City needs to clean better and clean off the grafiti all around. Overall nice experiance, but skip the Guiness world record museam, its a rip off.

The Alamo was very rich with history and informative information. Just standing in the middle of one of the rooms of the exhibits of the Alamo makes you feel you went back in time and your there feeling the history and events that went on. It was fantastic! I really enjoyed it.

They just let you look at the stuff its better if you get a V.I.P tour but uhm yea it was great i like the stuff but they don't let you touch and they are very strickt

Living in San Antonio for 6 years was great. The one big thing I remember the most is going downtown to visit the Alamo. As you walk up to it you get a feeling of what it was like before when San Antonio was 15 miles down the river. Once you walk into the doors of the Mission everyone just becomes wide eyed and very quite. You gaze into those small rooms and wonder who used this room and why. You turn and look up towards the top of the back wall and remember the story of how they got the cannons up there. You can image how scared those women and children must have been. Hearing the guns and cannons going off around them. Hearing, seeing, and knowing that there husbands, fathers, and friends were dying all around them. It gives one goosebumps to think about it when you are standing there in the Mission. Going back outside to the barracks. Knowing who was here and that some of this stuff they may have touched and used. And there is a tree in the courtyard that is so hugh that it needs help to hold its limbs up. And to think it was just a sapling when Davy was walking around the fort. Great place to come and the kids will love it and it's free!!!

I can't imagine going to San Antonio, and not visiting the Alamo. This is a huge piece of American history. You can spend hours reading about all the things that happened here. It's also FREE! Try to go down there when the musuem in the barracks is open. You have all kinds of neat artifacts like old uniforms, swords, muskets, knives, etc. There is even a short movie they show you about the history of the Alamo! This is for sure a MUST SEE.
