Hidden hot spots in San Juan Capistrano

In the middle of August, I went to visit the oldest building in California "Mission San Juan Capistrano".
It is a very nice one hour drive from LAX to San Juan Capistrano in Orange County.


The mission's history began in 1775.


Time trips back to 230 years ago.

In the afternoon, the sky became clear and added a shine to the mission.

Orange butterflies enjoy their colorful garden.







The contrast of blue sky and white church gives you the feeling that this is a blessed place.


It is a very peaceful place and I recommend a visit to everyone.




The mission is surrounded by a cute old town and there are many restaurants, gift store and cafes.
Their is a Metro station in middle of the town so you can come here from LA downtown by Metro.
There is also oldest neighborhood in California "Los Rios Historic District".

I had so many place I want to visit next time, such as a moody restaurant, a cozy cafe and a beautiful tea house.

San Juan Capistrano is a charming historical town. I was amazed to see everything.
