The first settlement in Spanish controlled Texas, San Antonio's long history is still tangible in its eighteenth-century missions and presidio. As the site of the Alamo fortress, one of the most visited sites in the United States, the city and the battle for the Alamo played a key role in the state's struggle for independence from Mexico. Rapid growth in the twentieth century led to the development of thriving museums, gardens, and theatres. The pedestrian Riverwalk, where the Gunter Hotel San Antonio Riverwalk is located, is a hub for these modern attractions, featuring shopping, dining, nightlife, and cruises down the San Antonio River.
