Looking for spectacular views of downtown San Antonio? The Tower of the Americas offers jaw-dropping vistas in a relaxed atmosphere, whether you choose to take in the scenery from its upsale, revolving restauarant or the Flags Over Texas observation deck.

The quiet beauty of San Antonio unfolds as visitors gaze out from the 750-foot tall tower's glass walls. Enjoy a fine-dining experience at San Antonio Chart House, a top-rated restaurant from the Landry's chain of seafood eateries. The Chart House offers a top-notch Happy Hour, where patrons can sample Texas-infused offerings such as the Prickly Pear Frozen Margarita, Firecracker Shrimp and Ahi Nachos.

If you want to visit strictly for the view, then stop at the Flags Over Texas observation deck, which offers stunning and unobstructed vistas of the Alamo City. The observation deck also includes a special meeting room and banquet facilities, available for business meetings, school educational gatherings, weddings or other special events.

For another bird's-eye-view of Texas, head over to the 4-D theater ride, Skies Over Texas. This multi-sensory experience takes visitors on a sweeping trip across Texas. You'll get a close-up look at some of the unique events and places that make Texas the true Lone Star State. For instance, visitors will zoom in on a Friday-night high school football game, and then peek over the shoulder of an engineer working with a space shuttle at NASA.
