The Palm Court Plaza at the Anaheim
Convention Center (above), and the
Orange County sunset.

Founded in the 1850s by German immigrants, Anaheim has a rich history,
from its early wine making days to its
booming citrus industry. Home to 343,000
residents and receiving approximately 20
million visitors each year, the 50-squaremile city is an entertainment mecca, with
several major sports teams, the largest
convention center on the West Coast, 47
parks, and cultural attractions for all ages.

which offers a happy hour daily from 3 to
6 p.m. Eastward is Angel Stadium (tours
available), Honda Center (host to the
Anaheim Ducks), and the Flightdeck
Air Combat Center-where you can
channel your inner " Top Gun " in a simulation. Like currywurst? Just further north,
The Phoenix Club offers German food
and beer in the Loreley Restaurant and
smaller Bierstube (pub).

Anaheim and Adjacent

Theme-park aficionados will fi nd no lack
of fun at the Disneyland Resort, host
to Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. Both are accessible via Downtown Disney, which boasts an assortment
of souvenir shops, boutiques, and eateries. For affordable southern fare, try the
House of Blues Anaheim-a popular
restaurant/bar and concert venue. Foodies may opt for Uva Bar across the street,
where Spanish tapas are served al fresco.
Near the Anaheim Convention Center,
restaurants pepper the streets, many with
familiar names. Diners who wish to save a
dime may try McCormick & Schmick's,

For a little culture and shopping, Old
Towne Orange is a one-square mile
area south of Chapman University. In addition to being the largest nationally registered historic district in California, it
contains an eclectic mix of antique
shops, galleries, and restaurants. Pit
stops include Gabbi's Mexican Kitchen (careful, there's
no sign), Haven Gastropub,

For history and culture, head to the Anaheim Colony district. You'll discover
Founders' Park, which has two historic
homes (note-homes/facilities are open
only the first Saturday morning of each
month; grounds are open daily), and Pearson Park, with its 85-year-old amphitheater. Nearby is Muzeo, a unique museum
exploring culture, history, and the natural
world. If the sights make you hungry, head
to the Anaheim White House, which

in a restored landmark. The chef has been
nationally recognized for providing free
meals each night to motel children; to date
he has fed more than 420,000 kids.
