The park is home to Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park, each full of rides, shows, and meet and greets with your favorite characters. For some non-theme park activities, check out Downtown Disney District, full of restaurants, shops, and shows.

If you didn’t get your fill of thrills at Disney, head to Knott’s Berry Farm for more coasters, thrills, shows, and more. See the team from Angels in the Outfield in person at Angel Stadium of Anaheim, or spend the day on the rails and ramps at Vans Skatepark. Find the craziest food inventions at Anaheim Packing House then later spend some time hanging around the Center St Promenade.

Colony Historic District is the historic center of the city, but Southwest is where you’ll find all the theme parks. For sports, trendy restaurants, and young, hip vibes, head to Platinum Triangle.

California natives tend to be open minded, progressive, and relaxed, and Anaheim is no exception.
