That huge purple building in San Jose is home to the Children's Discovery Museum where kids can see a real mammoth named Luke, get bubbly at Bubbalogna, artsy at the Art Loft, and learn how to grow vegetables at the Kids Garden. Bring your family for hours of educational fun at this creative and playful attraction.

For the spookiest attraction in the city, visit the most famous address in San Jose, the Winchester Mystery House; built by Sarah Winchester, the widow of the gun magnate William Winchester. Legend has it; the widow took 38 years to build the extravagant Victorian mansion with 160 rooms, 47 fireplaces and 950 doors with the help of spirits and nightly séances. Enter at your own risk.
