The Pasadena Playhouse District is home to the Pacific Asia Museum. The building alone, a former residence modeled after the Beijing palace of a Chinese prince, justifies a visit to this attraction.

The Tournament of Roses is an action-packed celebration held on the streets of Pasadena, filled with spectacular flower-covered floats, impressive marching bands and a host of celebrity guests which precludes the legendary Rose Bowl Football game.
Outdoor lovers love the Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens. Spend your day talking with more than 1,100 animals from around the world and exploring a beautiful botanical garden at a zoo made famous when two of its primates starred in the 1971 movie Planet of the Apes!
