WHY LOCALS LOVE
SAN ANTONIO!
What makes San Antonio the most
beautiful city in the country is its
people. San Antonians are the most
kind and welcoming folks youll ever
meet. But whats amazing is the
way we all come together to help
each other. The love we show to
the military community and how
every year we all come together to
celebrate our culture and history
during FIESTA is amazing. And dont
forget about the Spurs! Whether
they win or lose, you know we will be
by their side no matter what! San
Antonio is a special and magical
city and I am happy to call it my
home. Fernanda E.
Pg #05 YELP + MALA LUNA MUSIC FESTIVAL
When a San Antonian describes
something as embodying San
Antonio values, its called Puro
SanAnto, or Pure San Antonio.
San Antonio isnt just a bustling
metropolis, its a three-hundred-
year-old intersection of culture,
food, and fun. Nowhere else in the
world exists at such an amazing
crossroads of cultures. With
these cultures, traditions, and
heritages come the cuisines of San
Antonio. Expect anything from
authentic down-home Tex-Mex to
experimental fusion restaurants!
When it comes to breakfast, San
Antonio is the undisputed world
champion of the breakfast taco.
Nowhere else in the world offers
such a dizzying array of breakfast
tacos not even Austin.
The diversity and culture thrive in
San Antonio because Texans are
such friendly people! When walking
down the street, dont be surprised
to be met with a warm Howdy!
Curt C.
We asked a few of our local Yelp Elites what makes them so
passionate about our city. Elites are some of the most active
contributors on Yelp, and theyve got a one-of-a-kind insight
into what makes San Antonio special. Heres what they had to say:

San Antonio is the place to be when
it comes to a pure cultural travel
experience. San Antonio has the
best of the best! Los Spurs, eats,
historical landmarks, and local
events have me never wanting to
leave my beloved city! We have Mi
Tierra, thats open 24 hours, 365
days a year serving 75-year-old
Mexican recipes. Walk into your
local H-E-B and you may just run
into a San Antonio Spur doing their
routine grocery shopping. Theyre
sweet as pie. San Antonio is the
only location in Texas to hold the
first World Heritage Site The
Missions. Visit all of them, and dont
forget that flashy selfie in front
of the Alamo! Once youre done
working that Fitbit, head on over
to the Briscoe Western Art Museum
to check out Santa Annas sword
and Pancho Villas saddle. The
details are captivating! Were lucky
to have diverse cuisine offerings
and creative chefs that make
everlasting impressions on your
palette. San Antonio awaits your
glorious arrival! Julie G.
San Antonio is unique in many ways.
Its a continuously growing city
that has embraced its rich history
and encouraged cultural diversity.
These things are evident in our
museums, the architecture, and the
annual events. San Antonio is also
wonderfully positioned within the
state, as we have natural features
derived from what is known as the
Texas Hill Country including rivers
such as the Frio and Medina, as well
as the beautiful rustic country that
spans the outlying areas. The food
scene has picked up tremendously,
we have the Spurs (not to mention
@spursjesus!), and, last but
not least, were a small town
community in a major metropolitan
city! Jai J

A fantastical grotto along the
Museum Reach of the River Walk.
This man-made cave even includes
a series of waterfalls! It was made
by the local artist Carlos Cortes,
who is a very talented concrete
artist in the style of El Trabajo
Rustico. His family has been doing
it for generations, which really
shows! As you step through the
jaws of a jaguar, check out the
stalactites that hang from the
ceiling. Everything looks completely
natural, as do all of the features of
the cave. If you look closely, various
figures are sculpted into the stone
walls that make up the inside of the
grotto. Curt C.

Stroll the southern, more serene

Amazing, amazing, and amazing!
The brisket was so moist, flavorful,

as well. The mac was rich and
delicious! This was way more than
