Review:
San Antonio, Texas, is best known to most travelers as the location of the 1836 Battle of the Alamo. Visitors can experience this historic landmark at Alamo Plaza, where they’ll find a 300-year-old mission turned fortress, living history battlefield tour, and gift shop. Another highlight of this vibrant city is the River Walk. The pedestrian promenade is a network of walkways that stretch along the San Antonio River. Visitors can experience the fusion of Old Mexico, Native America, and the Wild West through the sights and sounds of restaurants, bars, shops, and historic missions along this central artery. As a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy, there is a surprisingly diverse culinary tradition in San Antonio that begs to be explored.
