Learning about San Bernardino's colorful past is as easy as paying a visit to the San Bernardino County Museum. This impressively arranged facility perfectly balances the area's cultural and natural histories. See creatively constructed exhibits and attractions that focus on local history, anthropology, and the various types of birds that make their home here. Plus, there are various seasonal exhibits and presentations throughout the year. Don't forget to check out the wildlife art, Chinese embroideries, and the museum's rustic landscaping during your visit.
For the urban cowboy (or cowgirl) in everyone, there's the Brandin' Iron Saloon and Dance Hall. This charmingly rustic nightlife spot is one of those places that could have been the setting for the famous “Urban Cowboy” movie. The venue features various live country bands, dance lessons and the ever-popular mechanical bull that always attracts plenty of takers. There is also a delicious dinner menu available, too.
The bright flurry of violins and the ominous timbre of the cellos are just a few of the sounds you will hear once the conductor raises his baton over the San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra. This highly accomplished group of musicians works hard to bring the best of the classics to audiences in San Bernardino year round. Some of their most notable presentations have been the Orchestral Treasures series, Tchaikovsky's Finest, as well as various seasonal favorites like The Nutcracker.
Despite the demise of his political career in the wake of the Watergate scandal, Richard Nixon had a surprisingly accomplished political career up to that point. To learn about that and also various aspects of his personal life, visit the Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace in Yorba Linda, California. Various personal items stand alongside career-oriented exhibits in this charming but unassuming home. In his later years, he contributed much to the political scene based on his experiences, and the library on the premises does an admirable job of presenting various aspects of Nixon's life before, during and after his Presidency.
