The extra travel time to nearby Redlands is worth it when you take a tour of the Edwards Mansion. This regal Victorian structure is three stories full of history and fascinating memorabilia that will capture your imagination from the moment you walk in. The mansion is surrounded by several orange groves that only add to its unique appeal. The structure is also a popular setting for weddings, family parties and receptions.
The Big Bear Solar Observatory proves to be as mighty and impressive as its name. This facility was originally built back in 1965 by the California Institute of Technology and is now maintained by the New Jersey Institute of Technology. It has the distinction of being one of only six solar observatories in the world, plus the added attraction of being located on an island in the center of a lake in the San Bernardino Mountains. The location proves to be ideal for looking heavenward as there is minimal pollution, the skies are typically clear, and the airflow is smooth, making for great views that are nothing less than stunning.
The Robert and Frances Fullerton Museum of Art is located on the campus of California State University San Bernardino. The museum is an impressive facility that's home to a collection of close to 1,200 objects that include ceramics and ancient and contemporary art, as well as a large collection of Egyptian artifacts that features 500 pieces spanning over 4,000 years of history. These are just some of the museum's many highlights, which complements its many exhibits with lectures, special presentations and various seasonal events.
San Bernardino welcomes its share of bands that are on tour, and when they make their stop at the San Manuel Amphitheater, be ready for a great show. This entertainment venue has been a longstanding live music benchmark in the community, and while it isn't the fanciest or most polished place to see a show, the rugged and somewhat rough surroundings only add to the experience of seeing your favorite rock band take the stage and rattle the walls a bit.
