Amtrak Coast Starlight

A grand west coast train adventure, en route daily between Los Angeles and Seattle, the Coast Starlight train passes through Santa Barbara, the San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento and Portland. Widely regarded as one of the most spectacular of all train routes, the Coast Starlight links the greatest cities on the West Coast. The scenery along the Coast Starlight route is also unsurpassed by any others. The dramatic snow-covered peaks of the Cascade Range, Mount Shasta’s lush forests and fertile valleys, and the long stretches of the Pacific Ocean shoreline provide a stunning backdrop for your journey.

Pier Santa Barbara

Santa Barbara, California, is a city embodying Spanish style. Even new architecture here embodies ingenuity, and the streets are lined with ever-changing residences, hotels, and theaters, all of which are breathtakingly beautiful. The Santa Barbara Pier, a must-see attraction, offers expansive views of the azure coastline, gentle breezes, circling seagulls, and sunlight shimmering on the water, creating a tranquil and beautiful scene.

Superior Court Of California

The current Santa Barbara County Courthouse was completed in 1929. This Spanish Colonial Revival style courthouse was designed by William Mooser III. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1981 and named a California Historical Landmark in 2003.

Old Mission Santa Barbara

The Old Mission Santa Barbara is the oldest existing building in Santa Barbara. It includes the Santa Barbara church, museum, and garden. Built by the Spanish in 1786 for missionary purposes, it is a well-preserved monastery that is still in use today. The Santa Barbara Old Mission is one of the top ten cathedrals in California and one of the greatest treasures of Santa Barbara. The Old Mission Santa Barbara displays great Spanish architecture, exclusive history, and demonstrates an important religious significance, making this such a unique landmark in Santa Barbara!

nice sevice

节奏很适合老人家,走路不多,景色很美值得在圣芭芭拉多玩几个景点,但路上耽误太多时间了知道一早出发中午才坐上到圣巴巴拉的星光号观景火车,此线路的时间安排上值得优化再优化。

特别美!有很蓝很清澈的大海,还有非常漂亮的建筑,看起来有欧洲的风格。有个丹麦小镇,里面能看到安徒生和美人鱼的雕像,适合童心未泯的人去玩。
