Spend a Morning at the Missions
 San Antonio is one of America's most historic cities, with its Spanish roots reaching back to 1691 when an exploratory party, called an "entrada," headed by Domingo Teran de los Rios, made its way north out of Mexico where the Spanish had already been firmly entrenched for more than 150 years. |
Immersed at the IMAX -- 'Into the Deep' at New 3-D Theater
"In your face" takes on a whole new meaning when you don 3-D glasses and slip beneath the waves from your seat at the IMAX Theatre at Rivercenter Mall for a viewing of "Into the Deep." With sunlight filtering down through skyscraper-tall strands of kelp overhead and fish darting past you, you find yourself so immersed in this deep-sea world that you feel like shaking the water out of your ears. |
A River Runs Through It -- San Antonio and Its Famous Riverwalk
Bubbling out of the ancient "Blue Hole" on the present campus of the University of the Incarnate Word, the river dubbed Yanaguana by the Payaya Indians weaves its green thread south through neighborhoods, parks and businesses to become, four miles later, the famed Paseo del Rio or San Antonio River Walk. Its story is as colorful as the buildings and foliage it lazily flows past. |
 Little Rhein Steak House -- Taste History on the River
Germans may have their "Castles on the Rhein," but San Antonio has them one better with its "Rhein on the River" -- the famous Little Rhein Steak House, nestled in a picturesque bend of the winding San Antonio River. |
San Antonio: Your Golf Destination
San Antonio has long been known for its majestic Alamo and romantic Riverwalk. Now, over the past few years, golf has put the Alamo City on the minds of thousands of tourists. |
 Thomas Kinkade: Painter of Light
Sunlight filters through trees onto a garden pathway; a golden glow emanates from the windows of a cheerful cottage; reflections of a setting sun shimmer on the gentle waves of a tranquil bay lit by a lighthouse's comforting beacon. You are in the unique world of Thomas Kinkade, "Painter of Light" and America's most-collected living artist, whose serene, light-infused paintings transport the viewer to idyllic landscapes and seascapes steeped in romantic nostalgia. |
