San Antonio's Attractions and Activities

	Explore San Antonio Consider these high points as you plan your trip, ranging from the city's major theme parks to the River Walk lined with restaurants, patios, galleries and shops. The city is filled with culturally significant arts, history, culture, museums and architecture.
	Golf and Sports Play a round of golf at one of the area's forty courses including La Cantera, one of the world's top 20 golf courses (Conde Nast Travel). Sports fans will want to plan a trip around the next Spurs game, Missions baseball game, Rampage hockey game, or WNBA Silver Stars game.
	Families and Children The city's major theme parks top the list but dozens of other adventures include the San Antonio Zoo, one of the nation's largest. At the Children's Museum, hands-on exhibits encourage creative play. Ripley's Haunted Adventure or Tomb Rider 3D feature special effects, animatronics and live actors.
	Free Fun Don’t miss the Alamo, Texas’ #1 visitor attraction. Stroll the secluded parts of the River Walk or wander through the Spanish missions. Soak in live music, from polka to R&B, daily at Main Plaza. Tuesdays at the San Antonio Museum of Art are free. Take in Southtown’s public shindig, First Friday Art Walk. More free fun
	Get to Know San Antonio Take a hot-air balloon ride over the city or Texas Hill Country. Stroll through the restored Japanese Tea Garden. Swim with the dolphins at SeaWorld San Antonio. Have an exquisitely-good tamale at Tellez, a great local dive.Take a river taxi from one end of the River Walk to the other. Have a mojito at the Menger Hotel's historic bar. Watch the sunset from the 759-foot Tower of The Americas. Splurge on dinner at Le Reve, one of the country's top restaurants.
	The Texas Hill Country In a June 2008 New York Times list of the nation's top 31 places to go, the Texas Hill Country topped the list. The rolling hills, limestone cliffs and cool spring-fed rivers start at San Antonio's doorstep.
	Calendar of Events Dozens of annual festivals celebrate art, music, culture, food, wine, sports, and all the major holidays. If you're looking to avoid the crowds, browse a more extensive calendar that lists smaller, but no less signficant activities.
	San Antonio in the News Find out what the New York Times, NBC and other media pundits have to say about San Antonio. Their take on the city's highpoints -- and off-the beaten-path hot spots -- is worth considering as you plan.
