A day spent experiencing the more modern face of San Antonio is also a must. The unique River Walk, the most popular tourist attraction in Texas, o ff ers an unforgettable start. Winding along the San Antonio River, the 15-mile River Walk brims with chic boutiques, great food and some of the most atmospheric hotels in the Southwest, all shaded under a leafy canopy. Make sure to visit Hemisfair Park, home to the Tower of the Americas, or Market Square, teeming with authentic Mexican shopping stalls and Latino art. If you are in need of even more fresh air, the gorgeous Texas Hill Country lies at San Antonio’s northern edge. Dotted with 100-plus wineries, among them Grape Creek Vineyards in nearby Fredericksburg, this wide-open countryside o ff ersan ideal escape for both wine and nature lovers.

Best known for the Battle of the Alamo and its current NBA dynasty, the city of San Antonio also boasts a host of well-kept secrets for visitors. Pair these destinations with access to some of Texas’ most beautiful countryside, and it’s no surprise that San Antonio is the most visited city in the Lone Star State. The Alamo is the perfect introduction to both San Antonio and the whole of the southwestern US. Located in the heart of downtown San Antonio, the mission stands as a testament to the American fi ghting spirit, is fascinating for history bu ff s, and o ff ers the more casual visitor an afternoon stroll in the surrounding gardens. But while the Alamo is by far the most famous of San Antonio’s historical landmarks, the city is home to four other 18th-century missions, including Mission San José, which is the largest; these should not be overlooked.
