If you visit in October, be sure to look up the Big Fresno Fair. As its name suggests, this is Fresno County's big annual festival, and is actually the fifth largest fair in the state. Come by for live musical performances by local, regional, national and even international artists. The carnival and special exhibits promise all-day fun for people of all ages.
Step back in time and enjoy a romantic ride from Fresno Carriage, which offers horse-drawn carriage rides for weddings, anniversaries and other special events. This locally owned and operated company centers out of the foothills of Central Valley, and the beautiful Percheron horses are available for reservations in all areas of Fresno County.
Home to the Fresno Historical Society, the Kearney Mansion Museum can be found in Kearney Park. This historic mansion has been preserved and restored over the years, and is now considered Central Valley's most important agricultural historic site. Public tours of the mansion are available on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. This museum offers a great look into Fresno history.
