Centrally located on Alamo Plaza in downtown San Antonio, the Alamo features interactive tours and exhibits and hosts reenactments of the Texas Revolution. Today the Alamo is the heart of San Antonio and it is Texas’ most visited historic landmark.
Stroll through the 4.2-acre complex and Alamo Gardens, then head back down to the River Walk for local experiences in dining, shopping and entertainment.
A story bigger than Texas…..a landmark of Texas history.
Be prepared to follow a stricter code of conduct than at other tourist sites, because the Alamo is a shrine to those who died in the fighting. Don’t bring food or drinks into the buildings, and leave the kids’ bikes and skateboards at home—they’re banned from the grounds. Cell phone use and photography is also prohibited. As befits a shrine, men must remove their hats indoors.
