There is so much to admire, from the beautiful gardens and unique architecture to the bird enclosures scattered throughout the grounds. My favorite spot was what felt like a greenhouse--a beautiful white building tucked within the park, complete with a gorgeous fountain inside. It felt full of life and had such an ethereal atmosphere. Even the squirrels were curious and interactive, making the experience feel even more alive. There are also several beautiful statues placed throughout the property, giving you something new to discover around every corner. If you're looking for a peaceful place to slow down and appreciate nature, I highly recommend visiting The Heritage. 命に感謝。 @FireLordRia

La Mirada is the perfect place to ride to. There are plenty of bike lanes which makes it easy to share the road, plus the streets are paved to perfection, no pot holes here. Love art?

There are a lot of 4 star dining places around the area to grub at! Want to be the summer heat? La Mirada has it's own Water park AND public pool! Cons: I have heard from locals that the crime rate (mostly burglaries) has gone up over the pass couple of years; so lock your car doors. Review: Great place to be carefree, but don't be careless!

I was really disappointed with my recent experience at Anaheim Packing District, especially because…read moreof how unwelcoming and not pet-friendly the environment felt. In today's world, dogs are no longer considered just pets. They are family members, companions, and an important part of our everyday lives. For many of us, our dogs are like our children. We care for them, travel with them, and include them in our family outings. They bring happiness, emotional comfort, and unconditional love into our lives. I understand that businesses have policies and that there are health and safety regulations regarding animals, especially in dining establishments. However, there is a difference between following regulations and creating an environment where visitors with dogs feel unwelcome. Anaheim Packing District promotes itself as a vibrant community destination where people can gather, enjoy food, and spend quality time together. Unfortunately, the lack of pet-friendly accommodations significantly reduced my overall experience. A place designed to bring people together should also recognize that many families today include four-legged members. Southern California has a strong dog-loving community, and many restaurants, shopping centers, and outdoor destinations have successfully created welcoming environments for responsible pet owners. Having designated pet-friendly areas, outdoor seating options, or clearer communication about pet policies would make a tremendous difference. Being pet-friendly doesn't mean compromising cleanliness, safety, or the comfort of other guests. It means finding a reasonable balance that makes everyone feel welcome. What should have been an enjoyable outing turned into a disappointing experience. Instead of relaxing and enjoying the atmosphere, I was left feeling that bringing my dog was an inconvenience. I sincerely hope Anaheim Packing District management considers becoming more accommodating to families with dogs. Times have changed, and businesses should recognize how important pets have become in people's lives. A dog may be considered a pet under the law, but in our hearts and homes, they are family. Unfortunately, this experience has made me less likely to return or recommend Anaheim Packing District to other dog owners. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and considers making the destination more inclusive and welcoming to responsible pet owners and their beloved companions.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience here at Rubel Castle. Our host, guide,…read moreand local "Rubelligent" volunteer, Ms. Kathleen had all the intel about this historical property. She was so knowledgeable and helped set the stage for us to slip into a forgotten era and get a glimpse of how imagination met inventiveness with a DIY charm. ~ A LITTLE BACKSTORY FOR YOU ~ It's not pronounced Rubel as Barney from Flintstones. Rather, it's like Target is to Targét when we are trying to be fancy. So that's Rubel as in "Roo-bell." Unlike modern-day construction, Rubel Castle wasn't built overnight. It was made of collected recyclables and construction rubble that spanned many decades and took several friends and volunteers to build it. For Michael, however, the lifetime inspiration was first sparked at the age of 9. His love for canons was where it started and the rest is history you can hear about on the tour. But don't just show up like we did randomly one day. To book, visit RubelTours.org and make a reservation. ~ OUR TOUR EXPERIENCE ~ It's as if Michael Rubel, the creator and mastermind of this enchanted dominion had intended it to be--magical. Built in the castle period of wood and tin, every corner captured our interests, from antique cars to the 1890's Seth Thomas Tower Clock with a unique backstory (and only six in existence today). There were old vending machines, tools, trinkets, and machinery that time had long forgotten. Did I mention there was a drawbridge? Yes, and a dungeon too. I was just waiting for a dragon to come swoop down on us next. Walk in the footsteps of famous visitors like Alfred Hitchcock, Dwight Eisenhower, Jack Benny, and Bob Hope. It's a feast for the eyes no matter where you glance. I particularly enjoyed the bottle house that Michael built in 1968 as his "home" as a kid. That independent spirit was quite charming to see. ~ WATERCOLOR NATURESCAPE ~ We were fortunate to have our gracious host lead us on a tour and organize a special art crafting experience outdoors. It was absolutely lovely beneath the trees and between rusted vintage cars from the turn of the century. We each got a small canvas to paint our flowers in watercolor. (This particular experience takes place in the Spring and Fall, weather permitting.) We heard the squirrels rattling in the leaves and birds chirped and sang in the trees above. We discovered that peacocks apparently originated from this property, compliments of Michael Rubel. And did I mention that on the far side of the property, a custom garden was in full bloom? BOOK A TOUR Help support the Glendora Historical Society and keep this magnificently unique city-castle maintained. It's worth it.

This review is on the Historic Dreger Clock…read more You may remember the 4-sided,15 ft.tall clock that was displayed at Knott's Berry Farm for 50 years (1953-2003). It first sat in the "Ghost Town" area of the park in the rose garden. I remember it was in front of the bakery. It was eventually moved out front near their ticket booths. Then, it disappeared. The "Dreger Clock" was built by Andrew Dreger Sr. from 1928 to 1933. It showed the time, date, moon phases and 12 international cities. When finished he placed it outside his home in Long Beach where he built his wood frame home that withstood the quake of 1933 when other brick buildings collapsed. For 20 years he kept the clock in working order. After his death, Walter Knott saved the clock where it was enjoyed by thousands of visitors to Buena Park. In 2003, it fell into disrepair and was removed and placed in a warehouse. In 2007, the clock was purchased by the Buena Park Historical Society and an extensive restoration effort began. After a complete disassembling, cleaning, paint and repair, a special designed stand post was set near the historic Whitaker-Jaynes House, built in 1887 and now a museum across from the Civic Center on Beach Blvd. This became the new home for the clock. The dedication event for the restoration was Oct.3, 2009. It's a beautiful sight to see today.
