It is also romantic. My parents spent their honeymoon there. The San Antonio zoo and Japanese Sunken Gardens, next door to the zoo, are well worth a visit also.

Brandi, when my wife & I got married in 1965, we had neither time nor money for a honeymoon; had to go to work the next morning.:laughing: So about a year later, we took a little 3 day honeymoon trip to San Antonio, and besides the Alamo, some other old missions, the River Walk, and such, we did visit the Brackenridge Park Zoo and the Japanese Tea Gardens. I see the Tea Gardens have since closed. Of course, there's no comparison as far as size and number of animals are concerned, but I thought the zoo in San Antonio was prettier than the San Diego Zoo which I visited in 1973. But in 2005, my wife and I spent our 40th anniversary in San Antonio and we went to the zoo but just as we were getting out of the car, it started to rain, so we skipped the zoo on that trip.
