Welcome to San José, the heart of Silicon Valley — and one of the oldest cities in California. I’m glad you’re joining us for this tour, where we’ll explore how a little farming pueblo grew into a diverse, innovative city of more than a million people. We’ll start here in Old San José, at the Peralta Adobe and Fallon House Historic Site, the city’s oldest surviving buildings, right across from the lively restaurants and cafés of San Pedro Square. From there, we’ll make our way through downtown, past landmarks like the Cathedral Basilica of St. Joseph, the San José Museum of Art, and Plaza de César Chávez. Along the way, you’ll also see the modern side of the city — places like San José State University, The Tech Interactive, and the SAP Center, home of the San José Sharks. We’ll mix in cultural highlights too, like the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum, the Municipal Rose Garden, and the quirky, world-famous Winchester Mystery House. Finally, we’ll wrap things up at History Park, where you can stroll through historic buildings, hop on a trolley, and see how San José’s story has been shaped by its people, its orchards, and now its role as the capital of Silicon Valley. As always, please drive slow and safe. For the best experience, enjoy the ride and follow the navigation instructions carefully so you don’t miss a turn — or a story. Alright, let’s get started and step back in time to where San José began.
¡Bienvenidos a Sacramento, la capital de California, y a tu tour en coche con UCPlaces! Hoy exploraremos una ciudad donde la fiebre del oro, el poder político y la cultura se entrelazan. Sacramento nació en 1848, en pleno auge de la Fiebre del Oro, y pronto se convirtió en el punto final occidental del Ferrocarril Transcontinental. Para 1854 ya había sido elegida capital del estado, un papel que aún desempeña, guiando las decisiones que afectan a casi 40 millones de californianos. Pero Sacramento no es solo política; también es una ciudad de historias vivas, de arte, de encanto cotidiano. En el camino veremos mansiones victorianas, parques históricos y museos de talla mundial, además de la orilla del río donde miles de buscadores de fortuna desembarcaron en busca de sueños dorados. Este recorrido nos llevará desde la Mansión del Gobernador hasta el Capitolio del Estado, atravesando el animado Old Sacramento Waterfront y pasando por lugares emblemáticos como el Tower Bridge, el Crocker Art Museum y muchos más, para terminar con la foto perfecta frente al Capitolio. Así que abróchate el cinturón y prepárate: estamos a punto de descubrir la historia, la cultura y los tesoros de Sacramento, todo desde la comodidad de tu coche.
Welcome to Sacramento, California’s capital city, and to your UCPlaces driving tour! Today, we’ll explore a city where Gold Rush history, political power, and cultural landmarks all come together.

By 1854 it was chosen as the state capital, a role it still plays today, shaping decisions for nearly 40 million Californians. But Sacramento isn’t just about politics — it’s a city of stories, art, and everyday charm. Along the way, we’ll see Victorian mansions, historic parks, and world-class museums, as well as the riverfront where fortune-seekers once arrived by the thousands. This driving tour will take you from the Governor’s Mansion to the California State Capitol, through the lively Old Sacramento Waterfront, past landmarks like the Tower Bridge, Crocker Art Museum, and more, ending with a perfect photo opportunity at the Capitol itself. So buckle up and get ready — we’re about to experience Sacramento’s history, culture, and hidden gems, all from the comfort of your car.
