From the Spurs to the Alamo, San Antonio is known for a lot of things, and we can now add the title of Romance Capitol to the list.
1200 WOAI news reports the online retailer Amazon is out with their annual list of the most romantic cities in the country. This year, San Antonio was number one.
"The list is determined by a compilation of sales data from cities with more than 100,000 residents on a per capita basis and includes purchases of romance novels and relationship books (both Kindle and print); romantic comedy movies (DVDs and digital); a curated list of romantic music, including artists like Adele, John Legend, Ed Sheeran, Drake, Brad Paisley and Barry White (CDs and MP3 format); as well as the sales of sexual wellness products," Amazon said in a press release.
This is the second time we've been named to the top spot on the list.
The last time was 2014.
Richard Oliver with Visit San Antonio says the reputation as a hot spot for lovers is well deserved.
"We've got this Riverwalk that's lined with these dozens of quint sidewalk cafes," he tells Newsradio 1200 WOAI. "We've got the river barges that go under the canopy of these century-old cypress trees."
San Antonio was not the only Texas city to make the list. Round Rock was number 19.
