Downtown San Antonio is a thriving area of commerce and fun, celebrating history and culture in a way that only San Antonio can. The Tejano capital of the world, San Antonio enjoys a small-town feel. Its people are friendly, open and bicultural, instantly making anyone feel at home. Downtown is encircled by three numerical freeways, I-35, I-37, and I-10. Together the three highways create a rectangular route around the downtown area of San Antonio: I-35 to the north and west, I-37 to the east, and I-10 to the south. With easy access to the airport as well, downtown San Antonio is ideal for any kind of business. Whether you’re working or playing downtown, fantastic and unique dining opportunities are always within walking distance. One of the most popular Downtown destinations is the River Walk. San Antonio’s River Walk, one level below San Antonio streets, is a fantastic place to explore and party. Featuring numerous restaurants, shops and hotels, as well as the famous Rivercenter Mall, the River Walk sits on the most popular and developed downtown loop. The Riverwalk is home to many festivities throughout the year, including Fiesta, Cinco de Mayo, parades in celebration of San Antonio’s home NBA Team, The Spurs, Christmas parades, and so much more. Considered to be the cradle of Texas Liberty, the San Antonio Riverwalk area is also home to the heroic Alamo, where the Battle of the Alamo (1836) was fought in the name of Texas. Downtown San Antonio also boasts many theatres, including the Blue Star Arts Complex, San Antonio Symphony, Aztec Theatre and, at the heart of Downtown, the Majestic Theatre. As one of the most ornate facilities in the country, the Majestic Theatre has long held a special place in the archives of Texas theatrical and architectural history. Having the distinction of being the largest theatre in Texas for many years, the second largest motion picture theatre in the country, as well as the first theatre in the state to be totally air-conditioned, The Majestic is always worth a visit. Other fantastic sites near Downtown are the Casa Navarro State Historical Park, The San Antonio Zoological Gardens and Aquarium (home to over 3,500 animals representing 750 species on 56 acres), Institute of Texan Cultures, Instituto de México, Marion Koogler McNay Art Museum, Museo Alameda, San Antonio Children’s Museum, San Antonio Museum of Art, and the Witte Museum.
