SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO WALKING TOUR
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO WALKING TOUR
Historic Downtown San Juan Capistrano: Everything but the Mission!
August 30: 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM: $40/35
Downtown San Juan Capistrano has become one of Orange County's most popular downtowns - a beautiful blend of old and new. I imagine many of you have visited our famous mission, but may not be as familiar with the rich history of Orange County's oldest town. Join me on a 90-minute walk as you learn about the City has embraced its past through historic preservation and architectural controls. We'll use my popular listening devices on our walk. Here some of the tour highlights:
- California's oldest, continuously lived-in neighborhood: Los Rios Historic District
- The new, 60,000 square foot River Street Market - the largest commercial development in decades
- The Butterfly Garden at the Montanez Adobe
- Camino Capistrano's historic adobes
- Verdugo Street's gorgeous make-over and restaurants
- Results of the City's Design Review on contemporary buildings
Meet Hoffy in front of Mission Store at corner of Ortega Highway and Camino Capistrano at 9:50.
