San Diego, CA
Here you can see why San Diego is called “California’s Beach City.” But you’ll find much more than beaches and sunshine in San Diego. Aside from having what some consider the best climate in the US, Downtown San Diego is an energetic cultural hub where historic Spanish-influenced architecture stands near shimmering modern high-rises.
And no visit to San Diego is complete without a trip to Balboa Park. This urban oasis is home to many of the city’s main attractions. It combines a museum complex with themed gardens to produce a captivating Southern California landscape. It’s just a quick stroll from Downtown, and the park is one of the most prominent urban green locations in the entire country. Many of the park’s attractions, such as the Desert Cactus Garden and the Zoro Garden, are free to the public.
