San Antonio, Texas, one of the few unique cities in the
United States, is a mix of Mexican, Spanish, German and
other heritages.
San Antonio’s sunbelt climate makes living here pleasant
in all seasons. Mexico and gulf beaches are less than three
hours away by car. Austin, the state capital, is about 80
miles away in the Hill Country.
The city’s main attractions include the tree-lined
Paseo del Rio (River Walk) with its restaurants and shops,
HemisFair Park, a Mexican Market, museums (art, natural
history, Texas cultures, circus and transportation), a professional
basketball team, the third largest zoo in the United States,
a symphony orchestra, parks, numerous restaurants, the giant
marine park Sea World of Texas, and the musical theme park
Six Flags Fiesta Texas.
