I drove past Brix Mansion probably a hundred times before I actually stopped to look at it properly…read moreand I'm annoyed it took me that long. this building is stunning. built in 1889 and it still commands the whole block on Fresno Street. the architecture is the kind you just don't see anymore, ornate, detailed, genuinely grand. standing in front of it you get this weird feeling like you accidentally walked into a different century. it's on the National Register of Historic Places which it absolutely deserves. Fresno has more history than people give it credit for and Brix Mansion is one of the best physical reminders of that. if you're into architecture, local history, or just beautiful old buildings it's worth a deliberate visit not just a drive by. bring your camera because the photos basically take themselves. it's the kind of thing that makes you proud your city has preserved it and also a little sad most locals probably don't know its there. now you do. go look at it.

This is the only Italian Villa mansion with a baroque ornamentation that you would ever find in…read moreFresno, so tourist, architecture buffs and history lovers, this is perfect place for you to visit. This is a historic site and it should be on your must visit list while in Fresno. This mansion located in downtown Fresno, is one of its kind and unfortunately it is now a law office and doesn't showcase the lavish feature of its interior anymore to the public: three story twelve luxurious room, 4500 sq feet space. However the exterior of the house really is something to see and take plenty of picture off. Plus if you do visit this building, it wont be the only thing on your list to visit because 1 block away is the St John Cathedral and also the Meux mansion. There is no parking around its since its really close to the community hospital, I would suggest parking on R street near the church and take the opportunity to appreciate and take pictures of this architecture marvel. It looks like something that should be in Hollywood to be honest. most people in Fresno can pass it without even knowing that they have this beautiful building. If you must know the building was constructed for Herman H. and Helena S. Brix in 1910-1911. Herman H. Brix made a pioneering contribution to the development of Coalinga and was influential in the commercial expansion of Fresno. In addition to its historical associations, the Brix Mansion possesses considerable architectural significance. Designed by architect Edward T. Foulkes, it represents a brilliant example of a period-inspired Italian Villa, the only residence in Fresno built in this lavishly-embellished style. So take the opportunity to visit this unique mansion and bring your friends to impress them about the landmarks and historical building of Fresno.

They have people make sure you get on and off the right train. However, the text and email notifications are slow on updates. Trains are fairly clean with a free snack station, free sodas and water bottles, water bottle refill station and bathrooms. Seats are comfortable with tables. The train station from the parking lot is super close and convenient. But with my experience, the trains I take they are always running late.

For those wanting to renew your park and recreations annual pass, FYI they only process your…read morerenewal on Fridays of every week. In other words, if you come in on a Monday and pay your annual fee for the yearly pass (in Fresno, CA in my case) you will not be able to use your pass until the following weekend, Saturday! Because there system only takes the transactions on Friday??? WTF?Which is asinine and bullsh*t. Why do I have to wait a week to use the parks when i paid for the pass five days prior? They need to coordinate the input of the data into the system more seamlessly and immediate, this is JUST POOR efficiency and PURE LAZINESS. So my advice is to go in on a Thursday to pay and renew your pass, ALSO it is BS that you have physically go to their downtown office to do all this, WHY NOT have it online???????? Again unadluterated laziness and poorly executed and managed.

We stayed in the deluxe queen studio. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated. . It has a full kitchen and a full wall of windows overlooking the river! There was a great little deck with a table and chairs for eating breakfast and enjoying the view. The property had a great beach area with several nice spaces with canopies and chairs for guest to relax in. And plenty of space for all of the guests to enjoy . The River was clear and deep enough to swim in.. it was not very cold but was refreshing in the summer heat after a day spent up at the national parks. The room was wonderful . The kitchen was fully stocked with pots pans utensils , dishes, etc. the beds were comfortable there were plenty of blankets and towels etc. The host was very welcoming and responsive when we reached out with questions and there were instructions, request, and a lot of good suggestions for enjoying our stay provided in a paper that was left in the room.. I would definitely recommend the spot, I plan to come back to visit the Area again and couldn't imagine staying anywhere else

Unfortunately there are also hardly any flights to interesting places Lol but they do have the basics (LA, SF, Vegas, Mexico, etc.) I have family who live near here so I have been flying to/from this airport multiple times a year for decades now! The Einstein Bros Bagels inside the airport is pretty good although this location bakes their bagels instead of boiling them. The airport is always clean and I love love love the gorgeous trees in the entryway! There are a surprisingly large number of food and drink here. The rental car terminal is right next door (walk out the door from baggage claim and the counters for the rental cars are right at baggage claim) it is super convenient! You can idle at the curb to pick people up, they have cell phone waiting, plenty of parking - so easy! A few years ago they built a new covered parking structure which is awesome and very convenient. There's only been a few times I can't find parking there and have to park in the main lot. Overall this airport is the most stress-free easy airport I love it! Fun story: When I was in high school, I flew from Barcelona to Madrid then LAX then Fresno and on my luggage it said MAD and LAX and FAT so I thought it was funny to be 'Mad' that I got 'Lax' with my diet then got 'Fat' Lol
