  • we saw 3 of the missions while visiting San Antonio each is unique and wonderful. Take your time to visit and learn about the part each played in our history.

  • ✝️ Quiet, Open-Ground Mission - Perfect for a Peaceful Stroll ✝️ My pictures will speak louder than my words can when discussing San Juan. It's a tranquil, vibrant, and homey Mission, with an onsite chapel. There's a house built nearby where someone actively lives, and their small courtyard and porch make for some cozy photographic keepsakes (benches, stone walls, old doors, lush potted plants, etc.). The grounds are just the right size for a stroll, with many paved pathways leading through the Mission into the woods--for those seeking a longer venture. History buffs will want to visit the burial grounds, as well as see the chapel's interior, with its thatched ceiling and soft yellow glow. It's a great choice for explorers wanting to visit a quieter locale with less traffic.
  • I loved learning about these missions. A fun family place to visit. No charge for this national historic park. They do have a jr Ranger program at the main visitors center and the Ranger so super friendly and helpful. A great variety at the gift shop with local artist.
