New Years Fun

Most notably home to the over 100 year old Tournament of Roses Parade, and Rose Bowl NCAA Championship game, Pasadena is a relatively small city that is known the world over. But Pasadena is home to more than just the game and parade. Pasadena features wide, tree-lined residential streets and homes that are notable for their Arts & Crafts-style architecture. The most prominently known of this style of architecture is the Gamble House, which was built for David and Mary Gamble of the Proctor & Gamble Company. It is also known as Doc Brown’s home from Back to the Future. Bungalow Heaven is an area of Pasadena which is home to over 800 craftsman-style homes, one of which is home to the fictitious Michael Myers of the Halloween movie franchise.

To add to its cultural renown, Pasadena is home to a wide array of museums and intellectual institutions. The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens is one of the world’s great cultural, research, & educational centers. It houses 3 libraries filled with rare and exotic works of literature and art, while its 16 breathtaking gardens expand over acres and acres of pristine and meticulous landscaping. Pasadena’s Norton Simon Museum houses centuries-old works of art, while the Pasadena Museum of History is famous for its collection of California-centric archaeological artifacts and antiques from early California.
