Hidden hot spots in San Gabriel

Los Angeles has many historical spots. I like new things but also love to spend my time at a beautiful historical place. I came to San Gabriel for the first time a few years ago was amazed how fantastic the city was! San Gabriel is one of the oldest cities in California and there is so much historical architecture. I will show you some of my favorite spots in San Gabriel.

The most romantic spot in San Gabriel is Grapevine Park. This is the former site of a winery and museum. The Vineyard is free for anyone to visit,but it is very popular for weddings so please make sure there are no events before you visit. The Grapevine still has one real vine from hundreds of years ago, and you can see it full of grapes in September.
