A city in the desert

About 2 hours East of the sprawling metropolis of Los Angeles lies a city on the edge of the Mojave Desert, Palm Spring. The city has a great selection of bars, restaurants and shops like many places of its size, but what really sets it apart is its selection of unique tourist attractions. Some of these include the fantastic Living Desert wildlife park, the botanical gardens and the Arial tramway taking you to new heights. Further away you can also find the mars like landscape of the Joshua Tree National Park and the western filming location of Pioneertown #voyagevibes

Palm Springs, California. North Lykken Trailheads. Awesome hiking opportunities in greater Palm Springs area. Very walkable town with mid century architecture and lots of shops and restaurants.

Palm Springs

Palm Springs became famous in the 1900s, as a favorite retreat for John Muir and his daughters early in the century, and developing into a refuge for glamorous movie stars into the 1930s. Now, it’s no less fabulous, but has a more robust tourism industry accessible to all! While in Palm Springs, be sure to spend an early morning wandering through the massive, “furry” palm trees in Andreas Canyon (part of the Indian Canyons). The light is especially beautiful early in the morning, and it’s nice to be able to explore the area before the crowds start to arrive around 9:30/10:00am. Afterward, stop at the Moorten Botanical Garden to wander the really beautifully curated maze of exotic desert plants and cacti. You also won’t want to miss some of the famous Palm Springs mid-century modern design and architecture — my favorite spots are the Parker Hotel, the Palm Springs Architecture Museum, Palm Springs Art Museum’s Architecture and Design Center, Twin Palms Estates, Coachella Valley Savings and Loan, Elrod House Interior, and the Tramway Gas Station. Be sure to wander the main street to check out the beautiful mid-century home design shops and funky clothing boutiques, and enjoy the diverse food scene. On your way out, stop at San Gorgonio Pass for a photo-op with a sea of windmills! #awesomepic
