While it’s fun to explore off-the-beaten-path treasures, Downtown San Antonio is proof that sometimes the road most traveled can be the road best traveled. In this part of town, you’ll find a mixture of some of Texas’s most important historical sites mixed with an amazing culture and, of course, all the touristy-fun you could hope for. While you’re in San Antonio, visiting the most iconic site in Texas, the Alamo, is a must. At the mission, you’ll learn about the siege of the Alamo where a few men sacrificed everything for the Republic of Texas and why we still “Remember the Alamo” today. Pay your respects to some of the bravest men in Texas and retrace the events of the battle. Continue your lesson about the Texas Revolution at the San Fernando Cathedral, where you’ll find the few remains of the Texas heroes who died in the siege of the Alamo, including Travis, Crockett and Bowie. After the battle, Santa Anna ordered their remains burned and scattered, but Juan Seguin gathered them and hid them
