San Antonio is a city rich in history. Though it is most notably known for the Alamo, San Antonio also holds bragging rights as the first World Heritage Site in Texas by UNESCO.

In addition, its impressive Spanish colonial missions have been drawing tourists for many years.

However, you don’t have to be a history buff to have a fabulous getaway to San Antonio. The famed San Antonio River Walk winds and loops under bridges as it traverses sidewalks rich with restaurants and shops.

And while the River Walk may be among San Antonio’s most famous draws, it’s by no means its only claim to fame. While you’re visiting, you may also want to check out the Arneson River Theatre, Marriage Island, La Villita, HemisFair Park, the Tower Life Building, the San Antonio Museum of Art, and the Pearl.

Perhaps surprisingly, San Antonio has gained a reputation for its varied music scene. Here, you can find nearly any genre, from punk and metal to hip-hop to, of course, country-western.

Of course, it’s a great place to fill up on delicious Tex-Mex food, but don’t overlook its excellent farm-to-table offerings. It has emerged as quite the foodie destination!
