Shalom and Welcome to San Antonio

      San Antonio, the most charming city in the friendliest state, has something for everyone in every age group.  Named by Will Rogers as one of the four unique cities in America along with Boston, San Francisco, and New Orleans, San Antonio is also considered one of the three romantic destinations in the Southwest, along with Santa Fe and Sedona.

     Famous for its Riverwalk, the Alamo and the Zoo, San Antonio is also a city for families. All streams of Jewish denominations have synagogues in the city and the Campus for the San Antonio Jewish community is located conveniently in the near Northeast quadrant of San Antonio. For more information about synagogues and the Jewish Campus, see the Community Directory in the navigation bar above.
