In the heart of Texas lies San Antonio, a city steeped
in history, Southwestern charm and hospitality. Visited by upwards of
20 million people per year, the "Alamo City" boasts a seemingly
limitless array of entertaining attractions, from historical sites of
national interest such as the Alamo to thrilling amusement parks like
Six Flags Fiesta Texas. Running through the heart of the city, the San
Antonio River Walk passes alongside the river, providing a cool, scenic
way to browse downtown's shops, restaurants and attractions. Lying close
to the border, San Antonio's Tex-Mex cuisine is top-notch and many of
its annual festivals celebrate the city's multiethnic heritage and help
foster a strong sense of community.
