San Antonio, the Alamo, Spanish missions, River walk and so much more, located in the northern area of south Texas, is the second biggest city in the great state of Texas and the seventh biggest of America. The city was originally settled by Native Americans in the early 1500s, near the river that ran through the area; and they called it "Yanaguana" or "refreshing waters". It wasn't until the end of the 17th century, that an exploration party of Spaniards and missionaries came to the site arriving on June 13, 1691, feast day of St. Anthony of Italy and named the area after him; hence the settlement and river became San Antonio, honoring the saint. A presidio or fort was established within 20 years and a Catholic mission was constructed. Over the years, the city became the biggest Spanish settlement in Texas, and eventually the Mexican province of Tejas. When Mexico acquired their independence in 1821, the government invited English settlers to the area to settle. Antonio Santa Ana voided the previous agreement and battles ensued between the settlers, both Anglos and Mexican settlers, against the Mexican armies under Santa Ana. They persevered and won the land, until that fateful spring of 1836, when Santa Ana mustered all of his forces, and sent 4000 soldiers against a small band of Mexican and Anglo settlers totaling 189. After 13 days, the Alamo was taken and history tells the rest of the story. But we, Americans, will always "remember the Alamo" and the courageous, heroic acts of those famous men who died that day. Bill Travis, Jim Bowie, Davy Crockett and Juan Seguin led those men for thirteen incredible days. Their spirit, their memory and their great actions shall never be forgotten, as the men and women of this America, and these United States continue on in the great traditions of heroism that showed itself that day.

ALAMO

Today, this historical city is home to the wonderful River walk, a number of walkways that follow along the banks of the San Antonio River; Tower of the Americas, a 750 observation tower that was built for the 1968 World's Fair, and restaurant located at the top; SeaWorld, Six Flags, 4 time NBA champions Spurs and the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo, one of the biggest rodeos in the country.

AVIS

The River Walk in San Antonio is a majestic sight to explore as it parallels the San Antonio River going through the city. Sitting a level below the city streets, the walk is home to many fantastic boutiques, shops, bars and restaurants. Going from the Alamo to the Rivercenter Mall, then on to the Arneson River Theater, to Hemisfair Park, where the tower is; on to the Tower Life Building, then to the San Antonio Museum of Art and finally to the Pearl Brewery, this incredible pedestrian walk way is very unique and beautiful. Especially during the spring, when the Fiesta San Antonio holds their river parade with innumerable floats of flowers.
