Hidden Paradise Hotel on the San Antonio River||🌟 As soon as I walked into Canopy by Hilton San Antonio Riverwalk, I was deeply attracted by the atmosphere here! The hotel's design blends modern and natural elements, and every detail exudes warmth and comfort. What surprised me the most was the large floor-to-ceiling windows in the room, which offer a panoramic view of the beautiful river. It's so beautiful! 🍽️ Speaking of food, the hotel's restaurant is not to be missed! Breakfast offers a wide variety of options, from fresh fruit to hot fried eggs, each one is appetizing.

Flying from New York to San Antonio, the first impression is that of a peaceful and comfortable small town, but it turns out to be the 7th largest city in the United States, known as the 'invisible capital' of Texas. The city center is crisscrossed with waterways, with the San Antonio River winding and turning, small bridges over flowing water, reminiscent of Venice and Suzhou. What was originally intended for flood control has become a charming recreational and vacation area. 🚶The famous River Walk in San Antonio is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Texas. Walking along the riverside walkway, you can enjoy the unique scenery and architecture along the way and feel the strong artistic atmosphere. 🚢Be sure to try a boat tour of San Antonio. Boarding the GORIO Cruise and going downstream, the handsome captain will narrate stories that have taken place on both banks. The diverse architecture blends Spanish and Mexican styles, with bars, restaurants, hotels, and churches standing tall, boats weaving through, creating picturesque scenes, making it a great place to get lost in thought or intoxication. 🥣The evening lights and tree shadows shimmer on the river, creating a unique charm. You can enjoy a special dinner on the boat, with the breeze on your face, fine wine and food, gliding on a light boat through the river, with beautiful scenery passing by on both sides, feeling as if you are traveling in a painting.

Of course I have to go shopping in the beautiful autumn. This time I went to San Antonio, Texas, which is only an hour and a half drive from Austin. This is truly a multicultural and historic city. Hahaha, a proper tourist city. The temperature in San Antonio in October is also very comfortable. The Japanese Tea Garden in San Antonio stays for about 1.5 hours and has a beautiful environment, with mountains, water, flowers and fish. Pillars, pavilions, bridges, etc. all make full use of stone, which is quite unique. (I met a lot of people who took artistic photos) San Antonio’s famous attraction - the River Walk. Spend around three hours. This beautiful man-made canal runs along the city center and is lined with a variety of restaurants, cafes and shops. It is highly recommended to take GO RIO and follow the tour guide for sightseeing. The scenery along the coast is endless. It is a comprehensive version of Jiangnan Water Town + Venice Water City. Great place to eat, drink and hang out. The lights are bright at night and the atmosphere is very romantic. Mission San José in San Antonio. I stayed for more than an hour. This ancient church is one of the four cathedrals in San Antonio and has a long history. The church is quite majestic, and the walls of the church are also deeply imbued with a sense of history. Feel the blend of religion and culture. I look forward to setting foot on this unique land again next time and continuing to explore more wonderful things. Do you guys in San Antonio have any food recommendations? Next time I go on a trip
