10 best things to do in San Antonio, Texas

Travel tips about what to do in San Antonio from a local expert.

San Antonio is currently the 7th largest city in the United States, and ranked one of the number one cities to visit. Why, you ask? San Antonio is more than just a city it's a community of some of the kindest people you'll ever meet. Also because of the number of military bases and businesses in town, they have an eclectic mix of people. There is no shortage of fabulous attractions.

The Alamo city has one of the most beautiful botanical garden in the country, and is a must see! The San Antonio Botanical Garden's new expansion includes an adventure garden for kids and a culinary garden that features fantastic events for both adults and children. Although phase 1 of their multi-million dollar additions is complete, there's still more to come.

While the kids (and some adults) will love the rides at Fiesta Texas ()one of the best entertainment parks in the country) and the specialized interactive (even educational) fun to be had at the DoSeum, the whole family can enjoy an exploration of San Antonio's history at the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park and the Witte Museum. Did we mention they have dinosaurs? (Not real ones, of course!)

15 MILES
The Alamo- Free
The Battle of the Alamo (February 23 – March 6, 1836) was a pivotal event in the Texas Revolution. Following a 13-day siege, Mexican troops under President General Antonio López de Santa Anna launched an assault on the Alamo Mission near San Antonio de Béxar (modern-day San Antonio, Texas, United States), killing all of the Texian defenders. Santa Anna's cruelty during the battle inspired many Texians—both Texas settlers and adventurers from the United States—to join the Texian Army. Buoyed by a desire for revenge, the Texians defeated the Mexican Army at the Battle of San Jacinto, on April 21, 1836, ending the revolution.
