The San Antonio Japanese Tea Garden, or Sunken Gardens in Brackenridge Park, San Antonio, Texas, USA opened in an abandoned limestone rock quarry in the early 20th century. It was known also as Chinese Tea Gardens, Chinese Tea Garden Gate, Chinese Sunken Garden Gate and is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

The San Antonio Parks Foundation has partnered with ACE Theatrical Group to create an innovative proposal for the redevelopment of San Antonio’s historic Sunken Garden Theater. ACE’s historically-sensitive design will provide San Antonio with its only professional outdoor theater, as well as an excellent mid-sized, state-of-the-art performance venue - allowing this city to attract top-tier performers from all entertainment genres while carefully integrating this facility into the existing fabric of the park and surrounding neighborhoods.
