    I like history and things that are free/cheap so this location ticked both boxes when I was looking…read morefor something to do with my family while visiting the Houston area. I mean, who can pass up a cool memorial that is similar to the Washington monument in DC but it's in Texas so bigger (of course). We came on an afternoon during the hot, mid-June sun and there was not a soul there. The indoor museum was closed and we thought the whole park was closed at first, but no, it was just hot and most sane people were indoors. Hey, we're Minnesotans, we thrive in harsh weather conditions, mother nature be damned. We wandered around the grounds to see what this place had to offer. The monument with reflecting pond was cool to walk around, it is a really tall monument that can be seen for miles. Not a lot of stuff is built up around it though, so it feels way out in the middle of nowhere. It was also somewhat unnerving that we didn't see other people. A few more crazy people like us came after awhile and eased our nerves. It seems most people give a quick walk around the tower and then leave. Unfortunately, there was no battleship on the property as some other sites and reviews mention. That was a bummer, I would have gladly paid to take a look at that piece of history. That was kind of the ticket I used to get my family here, so once they figured out there wasn't a boat here, we packed up the car and left. Still a great piece of history that holds a special place in the heart of Texans (and the nation) everywhere. Interesting historical story to read about later too after visiting the site and seeing it first hand.

    Pretty cool place for it being hidden in the middle of the plants…read more $14 entrance is alright for just a small museum, a movie, and a view at the top. Would recommend this hidden gem. Definitely a great place for picnics and family time. Big fields!

    What a lovely venue if you enjoy American Indian art, jewelry and pottery however, given my that…read morethis is my first interaction it will likely also be my last since the proprietor is closing the shop. I did make some last minute acquisitions of Santa Clara, Akoma Pottery and Navajo jewelry all of which were of very fair value and wonderful quality. The owner's knowledge of each piece that I acquired was quite specific which suggests that this establishment was much more of a passion than than an occupation and if this review results in someone 'rushing in' this week to look at the many remaining treasures she has collected over the years please let this be my single contribution to whomever may be adding to their respective collections. It is quite unfortunate that we are losing this resource since other than in Galveston TX and located 'helter skelter' in Collectible and Antique collections there are no remaining Houston American Indian Art and Pottery retailers...oh well...all the more reason to visit New Mexico I guess.

    My favorite place! Authentic Indian Jewelry (and lots of other goodies). It is tucked away in La…read morePorte, but well worth the drive from anywhere. I own many pieces from here. Fern is so sweet and helpful. And she knows her stuff! I get complemented on my beautiful jewelry all the time. Check this place out. There is no other place like this that I know of except maybe on New Mexico.
