San Antonio is a major metropolis that is located in south-central Texas, approximately 80 miles southwest of Austin. San Antonio is home to The Alamo, an 18th-century Spanish mission that’s been well preserved and now serves as a museum. The site marks a significant battle that took place in 1836, and is a World Heritage Site. River Walk is a focal point of the city, where visitors will find stone walkways lined with restaurants, shaded by large trees. It’s a beautiful area, with calm water flowing down the San Antonio River, graceful bridges, and lots of birds. Visitors should also explore the San Antonio Museum of Art, McNay Art Museum, and San Antonio Botanical Garden.
