Shopping

With ten shopping malls within an hour’s drive of the downtown area, a variety of eclectic specialty shops and antiques stores along its outskirts, San Antonio is full of reasons not to return home empty-handed. A true shopper’s paradise. With miles upon miles of outlets, malls, galleries, unique shops and Mexican markets, it’s easy to find great gifts or the perfect fit. If you’re into local finds, Artisan’s Alley, Market Square, and La Villita Historic Arts Village offer unique crafts, local art, antiques and south of the border imports. Large shopping centers like the Quarry Market, North Star Mall, Rivercenter Mall and the shops at La Cantera entice serious, upscale shoppers. Plus, you can find great designer bargains at one of the many outlets around San Antonio and in nearby San Marcos.
