Visiting the Alamo

The Alamo is a must for anybody who has not been there. It is not that big, so the visit can be fairly quick. Sometimes a guide will be present outside of the building giving speeches about history. Another nice feature of San Antonio is its old buildings. While driving down a street, one can find three different classical styles of architecture. I was pretty fascinated because I took art history in high school.

Quick Tips:

There are some great places to go to with the family. There is a wax museum and a Ripley's Believe It or Not.

Best Way To Get Around:

I would recommend driving and parking near the venues in one of the parking garages. After that, you can walk around or take a Segway tour. I have no experience in the Segway tours, but they cost about /hr per person.

Every time we visit San Antonio my mom makes sure we visit Mi Tierra. She loves the place ever since she went there with her family several years ago and made sure to take me. I enjoyed the authentic Mexican food and liked the atmosphere. I would recommend this place to anybody looking for good Mexican food. On a side note, this place is pretty famous and has been visited by several celebrities.
