San Antonio, officially the City of San Antonio, is the seventh-most populous city in the United States, and the second-most populous city in both Texas and the Southern United States, with more than 1.5 million residents. Founded as a Spanish mission and colonial outpost in 1718, the city became the first chartered civil settlement in present-day Texas in 1731. The area was still part of the Spanish Empire, and later of the Mexican Republic. Today it is the state's oldest municipality.

Houston Street is the name of one of San Antonio's oldest and most popular streets. Being adjacent to The Alamo where the Battle of the Alamo occurred, some buildings on the street sustained cannon fire during the war. The historic Majestic Theater is located on this street.
San Antonio, officially the City of San Antonio, is the seventh most populated city in the United States of America and the second most populated city in the state of Texas, with a population of 1,409,019. It was the fastest growing of the top 10 largest cities in the United States from 2000 to 2010, and the second from 1990 to 2000.
San Antonio was named for Saint Anthony of Padua, whose feast day is on June 13, by a 1691 Spanish expedition in the area. It is notable for Spanish colonial missions, the Alamo, the River Walk, the Tower of the Americas, the Alamo Bowl, and Marriage Island. Commercial entertainment includes SeaWorld and Six Flags Fiesta Texas theme parks, and according to the San Antonio Convention and Visitors Bureau, the city is visited by about 32 million tourists a year. The city is home to the five-time NBA champion San Antonio Spurs and hosts the annual San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo, one of the largest such events in the country.
The US armed forces have numerous facilities in San Antonio: Fort Sam Houston, Lackland Air Force Base, Randolph Air Force Base (which constitute Joint Base San Antonio), and Lackland AFB/Kelly Field Annex, with Camp Bullis and Camp Stanley located outside the city. Kelly Air Force Base operated out of San Antonio until 2001, when the airfield was transferred to Lackland AFB. The remaining portions of the base were developed as Port San Antonio, an industrial/business park and aerospace complex. San Antonio is home to six Fortune 500 companies and the South Texas Medical Center, the only medical research and care provider in the South Texas region.
The missions of the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park along with the Alamo, became part of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites on July 5, 2015.[citation needed] The San Antonio Missions became the 23rd U.S. site on the World Heritage List, which includes the Grand Canyon and the Statue of Liberty.

Attractions
San Antonio is a popular tourist destination, often referred to simply as SA.
The Alamo Mission in San Antonio (the Alamo), located in Downtown, is Texas' top tourist attraction. Because of the mission, San Antonio is often called the Alamo City.[53]
The River Walk, which meanders through the Downtown area, is the city's second-most-visited attraction, giving it the additional nickname of River City.

10 Best Tourist Attractions In San Antonio, Texas
10 Best Tourist Attractions In San Antonio, Texas
Bus Travel San Antonio Texas to Monterrey Mexico. Greyhound and San Antonio's City Bus (VIA).
In this video, I begin by walking to catch a San Antonio city bus. Then, I transfer to a second city bus, before arriving in downtown San Antonio. From there I walked to the Greyhound bus station and boarded a bus to Monterrey, Mexico. Trip time eight hours.
From San Antonio, the bus stops in Laredo, then crosses into Mexico.
Once on the Mexican side, the bus stops at immigration. A inspector gets on, and if your not a Mexican, you must get off the bus and get a pass (tourist card). Then you get back on the bus. Next, everyone gets off the bus, with all their bags and goes through X-Ray. The bags go through X-Ray, not the people. :)
After that everyone walks out the door on the opposite side of the building and waits for the bus to arrive. And after that, everyone boards the bus and the trip continues.
Next stop, the bus station in Nuevo Laredo. Then it's on to Monterrey, Mexico.

Tower Of The Americas - Fun Things To Do In Downtown San Antonio TX
The Tower Of The Americas is one of the top tourists attractions not only in downtown San ntonio, but in the entire state of Texas.
The Tower was built as part of the World's Fair in San Antonio in 1968. The structure itself looks the same as it did during the World's Fair, but the City of San Antonio has done a lot in recent years to beautify the grounds with fountains, trees, plants and shrubbery to make the entire experience more appealing to visitors. You'll see a lot of those improvements in this video, which I shot with a cell phone camera in June of 2013.
The tower is surrounded by other interesting things to do and places to see. It's within easy walking distance of the historic Alamo, the charming River Walk, La Villita (the Little Village dating back to the city's early days), and HemisFair Plaza. The Alamodome and the henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center are also just a few steps away.
The Tower's official website says Located in downtown San Antonio, the 750-foot-tall Tower of the Americas provides guests the most spectacular view of the Alamo City. Enjoy the gorgeous panorama from the Tower's revolving Chart House Restaurant, take in the scenery from the Observation Deck or experience the thrilling 4D Theater Ride.
