Taste the Old West in Old Town Sacramento |
1101 Second St (between Front and Second streets) Sacramento, CA 95814 United States +1 916 264 7777 http://www.oldsacramento.com |
For a taste of the Old West, complete with dirt and cobblestone streets flanked with wide wooden sidewalks and "Bonanza"-style buildings, visit Old Sac. Tour the historical four blocks in a horse-drawn carriage or take a ride on a riverboat. Bustling with activity, this place offers tourist shops, museums and antique trains. On weekends you can usually hear Cajun, blues, or folk music in one of several saloons and restaurants. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Scenic trails meandering along |
Tower Bridge - Broderick Boat Landing Sacramento, CA 95691 United States +1 916 617 4620 http://www.ci.west-sacramento.... |
RiverWalk is a natural oasis meandering along the western bank of the Sacramento River. The network of scenic trails begins in the shadow of the Tower Bridge across Third Street from Raley Field. The paved trail is lined with native plants as well as signs that colorfully describe them. The centerpiece of this urban jewel is the Grand Staircase just below the Money Store ziggurat; it doubles as a concert amphitheater highlighting entertainers from everywhere.
