California Overview
Located on the Pacific Coat of the United States, California is one of the diverse states you will visit in America. Its geography as well as people makes California one of the largest and most beautiful places to visit. You can choose from the white sandy beaches to the snow covered hills of the Sierra Nevada. The largest cities include Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco with Sacramento being the capital of the state with an estimated population of over 37 million people, no wonder it remains the 3rd largest state! It is also the third largest state in the US. The climate ranges from cool and rainy winters to warm and dry summers.
So what is there to do in California? Los Angeles is home to the movie studios, movie stars and Hollywood! Several beaches lie on the western edge of this magnificent city including: Santa Monica Beach, Venice Beach, and Redondo Beach. San Francisco is most famous for the Golden Gate Bridge, but it is also one of California’s most beautiful places to visit with its many roaming hills and picturesque landscapes. You can ride the cable cars through the streets to catch an overview of the beautiful city. Yosemite National Park, located in the Sierra Nevada, is a popular attraction for sightseers, backpackers and rock climbers of all ages. Swing by and visit Napa Valley and Sonoma Valley to see the wineries and enjoy some good old wine tasting.
As you can see, there is so much to do in California; one trip may not be enough time to enjoy it all! Let Motel.com find and book your hotels for each trip.
