Wake up and fuel up in one of the many coffee shops in this "underrated coffee city", including the very popular Temple Coffee and 100% farmer-owned Pachamama Coffee.

Bring the kids to breakfast at Bacon & Butter near Tahoe Park or catch up with friends over brunch at the super-popular Tower Café.

Outdoor enthusiasts will catch a thrill ziplining at TreeTop, while rock climbers can practice their skills indoors at Sacramento Pipeworks. Sacramento has art and culture to spare. Residents can see movies and concerts at the historic Crest Theatre, crafts, music and exhibitions at the Latino Center of Art and Culture, and peruse the permanent collection at Crocker Art Museum, the oldest art Museum west of the Mississippi.

Students of all ages will enjoy learning about the state’s history at the State Capitol and California Museums, and kids will have a ball at Land Park, which houses Fairytale Town, lakes, play fields, and the Sacramento Zoo.

Enjoy a farm-to-fork dinner at industrial chic Magpie, southern food at Fixins Soul Kitchen in North Oak Park, or a special dinner at women-owned & operated Allora.
