All about San Antonio

San Antonio’s roots date back hundreds of years, to when the Republic of Texas and Mexico fought one of the most famous battles in US history — the Battle of the Alamo. The Alamo Mission is a well-preserved centrepiece of the city, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015. Five Spanish missions built in the 1700s remain here, along with one of the country’s oldest cathedrals, the gothic-style San Fernando Cathedral.

The 24-kilometre San Antonio River Walk runs through the city centre, where pedestrian-only streets line both sides of the river and offer restaurant patios serving Tex-Mex cuisine. Market squares along the walk sell artisan goods from handmade bags and huipil dresses to vibrant piñatas. Near the northern River Walk, San Antonio’s Museum Reach is home to the city’s best art, history, and science museums. Here you can see everything from ancient world exhibits at the San Antonio Museum of Art to contemporary paintings at the McNay Museum of Art. Nearby, Texas natural history and science are on display at the Witte Museum.
