San Antonio King William Historic District Walking Tour
Beskrivning
Om du har sett Riverwalk och Alamo... detta är något riktigt annorlunda. King William District började på 1860-talet när de första objekten såldes. Detta läge ligger bara några minuter från hjärtat av San Antonio. Beläget intill den slingrande floden, kommer du att fängslas av storheten i dessa bostäder. Hör berättelserna bakom 40 historiska hem där många av stadens mest framstående medborgare bodde. Se det vackra residenset som byggdes av mannen som skapade den första glassläsken, tillflykten för den excentriska societeten som begravdes i hennes Ferrari och huset där uppfinnaren av majschipset bodde. Det finns också hemmet som hade de första elektriska lamporna i staden, huset för en berömd tenor som sjöng i Vita huset och ett annat där en författare började sin karriär. Vad har Elvis Presley, Lily Munster, Davy Crockett och Frank Sinatra med kung William att göra? Hör dessa berättelser och många fler på din guidade rundvandring. Varje steg framåt är ett steg tillbaka i tiden.

Resplan
Vi kommer att ta en avslappnad promenad längs de lummiga gatorna i den historiska kung William, och under denna vandringstur kommer du att höra historien och berättelserna om dessa storslagna bostäder. Ta reda på om deras unika arkitektur, de som designade och byggde dem och familjerna som bodde i dessa fantastiska hem. Många av dem har fascinerande berättelser, och de har fungerat inte bara som platser för att fostra familjer, utan det finns många dolda och sedan länge bortglömda historier bakom dessa imponerande dörrar. Vi kommer att se några skatter från livet för länge sedan i denna historiska stadsdel och minnas grannarna som bodde här. Kom ihåg...varje steg framåt är ett steg tillbaka i tiden.
