San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site

“Remember the Alamo!” “Remember Goliad!” Shouted the Texian troops led by Gen. Sam Houston when they surprised the Mexican army that was camped here in 1836. The decisive Battle of San Jacinto resulted in Texas’ independence from Mexico. This 1,200-acre park includes the towering San Jacinto Monument and the San Jacinto Museum of History. Walk in the Texian soldiers’ footsteps on the grounds, explore the museum, and ride the elevator to the top of the monument to take in a bird’s-eye view of where Texas’ independence was won.

The San Jacinto Monument is an awesome monument commemorating the Texans victory over Mexico and the tyrant Santa Ana. I truly enjoyed the stories of Texas history written around the base of the monument. Texans showed Santa Ana a lot more mercy than he showed Texans at the Alamo. You can go inside to see the museum, a film and take a ride to the top of the monument. It's $12 for adults and $6 for children. We didn't go this time, but we will return. This is a must see for Texans and Americans. FYI - There's a lot of great things to do in La Porte. You can see the Battleship Texas, Sylvan Beach, St. Mary's Church and the Fred Hartman Bridge.

I've been here several times over my lifetime and it had been a field trip staple for countless school children for decades. However, while the grounds are still open for exploration, the ship itself will soon be leaving LaPorte for good. Though you used to be able to go aboard and explore at your leisure, take a guided tour with a vet or spend the night during one of their events, the ship itself has been closed to the public since August 2019. All you can do is look at the outside now. Repairs are currently underway to make it sea worthy enough for tow to a ship repair facility. It was originally slated to be transported sometime in November/December 2020 but, for obvious reasons, that schedule is behind. Once it is towed, there will be a repair process expected to last about a year then it will be permanently relocated somewhere in North Texas (as it did not have enough paying visitors to support its restoration in LaPorte). As long as it survives, I'm happy (though I wish it could stay in LaPorte). Goodbye Battleship Texas! We have many fond memories of you and will miss you.

Kemah Boardwalk

A 40-acre waterfront area with rides and entertainment for the whole family.

Reviewed By tomwU9174DH - Katy, United States

The Kemah Boardwalk has lots of restaurants and theme park rides to see and do. We went during Thanksgiving break on a Monday. The weather was cloudy, and there wasn't the normal crowds. We actually enjoyed and appreciated that. Parking was free at this time. The Christmas decorations were already up. The Aquarium is nice to see even if you do not eat. We have eaten at the Flying Dutchman many years ago. There is a hotel - Boardwalk Inn - that you can stay in. My wife loves the Kemah Boardwalk. Glad we could enjoy it.

This theater is always very clean! They all have the luxury loungers, which are super comfortable and large. They now have a bar, as well as burgers, pizza, and your normal movie food. The prices are higher here than at the Cinemark Hollywood in Pasadena. Staff has always been friendly. There's a couple bars right by there if you want to grab a cocktail before or after. Make sure to buy your tickets online because it's all reserved seating now and if you don't, you may have crappy seats. Good place.
