Tree huggers unite at the Sacramento Capitol Park. Thousands of species of trees occupy the park, some of them as old as Thomas Jefferson. The capital state park is home to majestic red oak trees, hundreds of unusual plants, and well manicured gardens that wind through the popular pathways used by local walkers and joggers. This park is California's rendition of an outdoor paradise.
It's a scientific playground at Sacramento's Powerhouse Science Center. Interactive experiences put kids right into an Archaeology Dig to discover fossils and dinosaurs, a space adventure at Space Quest is complete with wearing an astronaut suit and flying a space ship and into a galaxy of stars far, far away at the Planetarium. There's something to do and see for the whole family at this educational attraction.
Who said original art work has to break the bank? The Sacramento Arts Festival lets you shop works by 225 of America's best artists and craftsmen for great art finds at reasonable prices. Nibble on ethic cuisines and tap your feet to the non-stop jazz music from local-area bands.
Find your perfect balance at the Sacramento Ballet. The 800-seat theater hosts star ballet productions from Dracula to Cinderella to the Nutcracker. Besides the spectacular ballets, attendees can join in on events like "Inside the Directors Studio" for a behind the scenes look at upcoming productions.
