Historic missions and theme parks, river walk cafes and mariachis, working ranches and golf resorts - these are just a few examples of how the diversity of South Texas has created a uniquely rugged yet romantic culture all its own. Born out of the rich heritage of Mexico and influenced by the pioneer spirit of Texas settlers, South Texas has its feet firmly planted in both the old and new worlds. In San Antonio and other South Texas cities, historic battle sites of Texas independence reside side-by-side with metropolitan shops and night clubs.
