Overview
Known as the City of Roses, it is home to the Tournament of Roses Parade, held every New Year's Day since 1890, and the Rose Bowl Game. It is also a major science hub, home to Caltech and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Visitors stroll the 22 blocks of Old Pasadena, spend a day among the themed gardens of the Huntington in neighboring San Marino, and admire the Norton Simon collection and the 1908 Gamble House. At the mountain's edge, canyon trails offer a hike.
The historic downtown spans 22 blocks of restored 19th- and 20th-century facades along Colorado Boulevard, filled with shops, cafes, and galleries. Its alleys and courtyards reward slow wandering between meals and browsing.
Tip: Start at Colorado Boulevard and explore the side alleys on foot.
This vast estate in neighboring San Marino holds themed gardens, art galleries, and a research library across more than 200 acres. Highlights include the Japanese Garden, the Desert Garden, and the rose beds in bloom.
Tip: Reserve tickets in advance for weekends and holidays, when entry is timed.
This compact museum holds an impressive private collection of remarkable European paintings and sculpture plus major South and Southeast Asian art. A sculpture garden offers a quiet pause between galleries.
Tip: Allow two hours so the sculpture garden is not rushed.
Built in 1908 by architects Charles and Henry Greene, this landmark is a masterpiece of American Arts and Crafts design. Guided tours reveal handcrafted woodwork, stained glass, and furniture made for the house.
Tip: Book a guided tour in advance, as tour places are limited.
The famous stadium sits in the Arroyo Seco beside Brookside Park, with a paved recreation loop of about three miles circling the grounds. It makes an easy morning walk or jog with mountain views.
Tip: Visit on a non-game day for a quiet walk, and check event schedules first.
This 190-acre natural area at the mountain's edge offers trails through native plants and rocky canyon scenery to a seasonal waterfall. Picnic areas near the trailhead suit a relaxed stop after the walk.
Tip: Wear sturdy shoes and carry water, as the canyon trail is rocky and exposed.
