River City Run
Tourist attraction
👍👍 My husband, mother, and myself ran the River City Run tour and really enjoyed the experience! Although I live in San Antonio, I'm not originally from here, so learning about the historic spots in downtown San Antonio was very interesting and made me more proud of my adopted city! I'm not much of a...

👍👍 Incredible artwork, and a sobering reminder of how much our veterans sacrifice. I took a slight detour on my way to work to visit this war memorial. It features sculptures dedicated to WWII, Korea, and Vietnam war veterans. I thought it was interesting that the Vietnam sculpture said it was sculpte...

Park
👍👍 Such a beautiful walking path alongside the river that can last for miles if you’re up to it. It’s mostly shaded, has some areas for bicycles (although people are on them throughout the entire path), and the scenery is always majestic and surprising.

👍👍 Used to be one of my favorite spots in the San Antonio area, but they recently changed the hours to 8am to 5pm (used to be sunrise to sunset). Good luck finding the time to make it out there after work I guess…. Update: Looks like they changed it back to sunrise to sunset. Still gorgeous and beauti...

👍👍 Hard to not give a bridge 5 stars. It's a great viewpoint, but there are many others that give good views as well. The history of this bridge and space near it are much more interesting.
