San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site - La Porte (TX)

4 /5 Joe B: The battleground was a fun time. We stopped here and ran around the park seeing many birds, turtles, and other things. The actual museum was closed during our visit, however we could still walk around the outside and the rest of the park. They are currently doing some construction/updating to part of the park, so there should be some extra things to view in the coming months. I assume this might be from the lack of being "open" but the bathroom, which is open without a door, was accompanied by a massive wolf spider roughly the size of an adults fist and large frog in the paper towel dispenser where the towels should be. Anyhow, the battleground is very scenic and beautiful, just keep your eyes open on the bathrooms if you use them.

5 /5 陳威均（Joshua）: The adult ticket is $14. I came here around 15:45, and there was a very educational guiding movie about history. You can ride the elevator and go to the top of the memorial building; the view is astonishing. At about 17:30, you can walk around the park and enjoy the sunset. The pool reflects the monument building, and the wind is breezing. It is a wonderful place to chill.

4 /5 Ivan Teh: View @ San Jacinto Museum. . Ethereal fog shrouded this 173 metre tall war mounument during our visit, dashing hopes of the beautiful views of green fields and blue lakes from the observation deck at the summit. . Topped with a lone star, the worlds tallest masonry limestone column stands over a well-curated museum with over 2,000 artifacts, commemorating the decisive Battle Of San Jacinto, at the conclusion of the Texas Revolution. . Enjoyed the memorial film and the artwork exhibits.

3 /5 Timothy Castillo: The monument itself is interesting to see, so five stars for that, it is a cool thing to see and visit. Two stars off because of the surrounding area. I got there about a half hour ahead of closing, so I didnt go inside, just walked around and took pictures. What stood out to me more than the monument itself is how awful the surrounding area is. Oil refineries surround it and it just doesnt feel like an honored historic place. Theres more to see in the park, from what I can tell on here, so my rating could change on a following visit. The cherry on top is the festive "Independence Parkway" signs on the side of the road leading to it, which is a sad, poorly street along huge industrial complexes. I dont know what the museum inside is like, I would like to return again at some point and check it out more.

5 /5 Texaspolar Bear: Really enjoy our state history with artifacts and information. The staff was very polite. It is worth checking out.
