Visite à pied du quartier historique King William de San Antonio
Description
Si vous avez vu le Riverwalk et l'Alamo... c'est quelque chose de vraiment différent. Le district de King William a commencé dans les années 1860 lorsque les premiers lots ont été vendus. Cet emplacement est à quelques minutes du cœur de San Antonio. Située à côté des méandres de la rivière, vous serez subjugué par la grandeur de ces résidences. Écoutez les histoires derrière 40 maisons historiques où vivaient de nombreux citoyens les plus éminents de la ville. Voyez la belle résidence construite par celui qui a créé le premier soda à la crème glacée, le refuge de l'excentrique mondaine qui était enterrée dans sa Ferrari, et la maison où résidait l'inventeur de la chip de maïs. Il y a aussi la maison qui a eu les premières lumières électriques de la ville, la maison d'un célèbre ténor qui a chanté à la Maison Blanche et une autre où une écrivaine a commencé sa carrière. Quel rapport entre Elvis Presley, Lily Munster, Davy Crockett et Frank Sinatra et le roi William ? Écoutez ces histoires et bien d'autres lors de votre visite guidée à pied. Chaque pas en avant est un retour dans le temps.

Nous ferons une promenade décontractée dans les rues verdoyantes du quartier historique de King William et, au cours de cette visite à pied, vous entendrez l'histoire et les anecdotes de ces grandes résidences. Découvrez leur architecture unique, ceux qui les ont conçues et construites et les familles qui ont vécu dans ces superbes maisons. Beaucoup d'entre elles ont des histoires fascinantes et elles ont non seulement servi de lieux pour élever des familles, mais il existe de nombreuses histoires cachées et oubliées depuis longtemps derrière ces portes imposantes. Nous verrons quelques trésors de la vie d'autrefois dans ce quartier historique et nous nous souviendrons des voisins qui y vivaient. N'oubliez pas... chaque pas en avant est un pas en arrière dans le temps.
