San Antonio River Walk among the prettiest sights in the world, study says

Those who blew steam out their ears when a recent study declared the River Walk one of the nation's biggest "tourist traps" can calm down now. A new report from report by Swiss-based luxury travel company Kuoni had far nicer things to say about the downtown destination. Indeed, Kuoni declared the River Walk the 16th-prettiest sight in the world and the fifth-most beautiful in the U.S. It was one of only five U.S. destinations to make the report's top 20, and it was the only Texas location to make the entire list.
