The state of Texas has plenty of massive cities within it that are with a visit. San Antonio is one of those that can be hard to plan for.

Here are the things that should be made priorities during a trip to San Antonio:

The Alamo

The historic site of the Battle of the Alamo during the Texas Revolution. 'Remember the Alamo' has become a famous saying and made this one of the top tourist destinations in the city.

San Antonio River Walk

Perfect for a day out by the river or for a beautiful night time view. It goes through the heart of the city and will bring you to most of the must-see locations.

Japanese Tea Garden

The Sunken Garden has become a peaceful escape with Japanese-style gardens, bridges and koi ponds.

Frost Bank Center

If visiting within the NBA season, catching a San Antonio Spurs game has become a must again. Megastar Victor Wembanyama is a sight to behold in person.

SeaWorld San Antonio

One of the top parks in the city. SeaWorld is one of the largest marine-based attraction companies in the world and for good reason. They offer a great day of interactive sealife exhibits.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas

Historic Market Square

Majestic Theatre

Beautiful architecture, including a starry ceiling and intricate support systems, has made this one of the best places to view shows in the country. Concerts, comedy and more is held here throughout the week.

Alamodome
