    Tourism  
    San Antonio belongs among the handful of cities whose identity is so individual and unmistakable that it could be an independent city-state, completely surrounded by the U.S. Like New Orleans, Miami or San Francisco, San Antonio's culture seemed to develop on a course parallel to but independent from the rest of the country. The city's identity is shaped by a confluence of cultures: Spanish colonial plazas and tiny side streets dating from 1731, architecture showing German influence from the late 1800s and an ambience that came directly from Mexico.
