The Best Sight in San Antonio, Texas

Background Illustration for Sights

Much of downtown San Antonio can be explored on foot or by way of the trolley system that runs frequently between points of interest .

Depending on whom you ask, the number of neighborhoods in San Antonio varies. The San Antonio Convention & Visitors Bureau breaks the city into quadrants—Northside, Eastside, Southside, and Westside, with museums in the north, heritage sites on the east and west, and missions in the south.

The DoSeum

Alamo Heights

If your kids are bored with the Alamo, head to the DoSeum, where they can explore 68,000 square feet of interactive indoor space in galleries connected to STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) learning and discovery, along with the arts and literacy. Exhibits are geared to ages under 11, but even grown-ups will get a kick out of the Semmes Foundation Spy Academy and the beautiful Big Outdoors section, with WaterWorks and wheelchair-accessible treehouse. Visitors 18 or older without children are welcome, but will be asked at entry to present a valid driver's license and to submit to a brief automated background check. The DoSeum Store features apparel, books, gifts, and educational toys and games.
