About Orange County
Home to Major League Baseball's Anaheim Angels, Disney's California Adventure® Park, Knott's Berry Farm, and the Impressionist's dream known as Laguna Beach, Orange County has quietly become one of California's - and North America's - most popular tourist destinations. Turn-of-the-century charm awaits in Old Towne Orange, a gentrified village dating from 1871 that boasts a handful of buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as well as some of Southern California's best antiquing. To the north is Anaheim, the self-described "happiest place on earth," where you'll find a sprawling Disneyland® Resort that includes countless theme park attractions, not to mention unparalleled shopping, fine dining, and bustling nightlife. In the center of the county lie Costa Mesa, Santa Ana, and Irvine. In these cities, high-tech industry and phalanx-like urban sprawl are juxtaposed with a surprising mix of culture and sophistication, from the world-class Costa Mesa Theatre District to Santa Ana's unique Fiesta Marketplace to Irvine, that experiment in homogeneity that's also the nation's largest planned community. Last but not least are Orange County's coastal communities - places like Newport and Laguna Beaches - where exclusive resort hotels, acclaimed restaurants, and high-end shopping are set against a picturesque backdrop of crystal clear water, white sand beaches, palm trees, and glorious auburn sunsets. Indeed, Los Angeles' "little brother" has grown significantly over the years, and people from all over the world are taking notice.
Did you know?
Where do the swallows play? Legend has it that they reside at California's oldest mission, San Juan Capistrano (established around 1776), from March 19 (St. Joseph's Day) until October 23. While this fact may have been true in the past, decades of friendly, breadcrumb-throwing tourists have persuaded the birds to make the beautiful mission their year-round home.
