There’s a lot more to California than Hollywood, sun beaten palm trees and raisins…here’s 5 reasons why you should visit the Sunshine State…
1. California’s Cities – In one US state, we find two of the world’s best cities – San Francisco and Los Angeles. San Francisco, known as the ‘Paris of the West’ thanks to it’s European-esque style and Los Angeles, ‘La La Land’ where dreams come true.
2. California Wine Country – introduced by Spanish Missionaries in the 18th Century, California now produces more wine than Australia and if it were a country, would be the 4th largest wine producing country. Producing world class wine that has been known to rival the French, California has over 1,200 wineries including those of Ernest Julio Gallo and Robert Mondavi. Popular spots for visitors are Napa Valley and Sonoma County.
3. California’s Nature Parks – Yosemite National Park is a huge national park and almost all of it is class as “wilderness” unmodified by human interference – a very rare sight these days and consequently has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Sequoia National Park contains the largest tree on the planet and is quite a feeling to be surrounded by such giant trees.
