I couldn't get over the beautiful oak trees while I was in Texas. The shapes are so cool. You can see more of the garden the priest has created in this area... a lot of work.
The convento is the structure attached to the left side of the church (when facing the entrance) with multiple arches. It was built between 1745 and 1756 and was originally two stories. The convento was renovated and enlarged throughout the 1760s and 70s. The upper level was where priests, friars, and guests of the mission lived. The bottom floor had offices, an infirmary, dining room, and kitchen. Today it houses, among other things, a gift store.
