Californian Greg Critser begins this National Geographic guide in Los Angeles, with the beach communities of Venice and Santa Monica, and moves on to the Getty Center and the venues of the stars. Southward, you visit the Orange County beaches and a string of affluent seaside towns, including glitzy Laguna Beach and artsy La Jolla. The beautiful city of San Diego awaits with the worldclass museums and zoo at Balboa Park, the fairytale Hotel Del, and the beautifully restored old town, with its Mexican flair. Moving north along the coast, you take in Father Serra's missions, the jawdropping Big Sur scenery, moneyed Carmel and historic Monterey. You will discover the best of San Francisco, essentially a city of neighborhoods, each one offering something specialChinatown, North Beach, the revitalized South of Market area. Critser then explains how to get the most out of your visit to Napa Valley, as well as the neighboring Sonoma and Alexander Valleys, just as famous for their wines. From here, you enter the little traveled realm of the redwoods, preserved in such magnificent parks as Humboldt Redwoods State Park and Redwood National Park.Some of the towns you'll fall in love with include funky Mendocino, with its perch on cliffs overlooking the crashing sea, and tiny Guerneville, along the Russian River. Inland, in the Sierra Nevada mountains, old mining towns, ski resorts, and dazzling Lake Tahoe are all waiting to be explored. The book ends with a foray into the desert, anchored by Death Valley. Features include a driving tour of Los Angeles' funky architecture and walking tours of historic San Francisco, as well as cutaway drawings of Alcatraz and the seacreaturefilled tide pools. Extensive background information provides important cultural and historical context to this multifaceted state.Completely updated and revised, with brandnew photographs, the 4th edition includes new experiential sidebars, insider tips from National Geographic experts and others, as well as a useful 'charting your trip' section that helps you plot your upcoming trip to the Golden State.
