The restored residence is one of the oldest adobe houses in the region, and offers visitors a glimpse into the life of 19th-century farming families.
Whimsical, colorful, and spectacular are just some of the words that describe Queen Califia's Magical Circle, a sculpture park designed by the late Franco-American artist Niki de Saint Phalle.

The center also hosts important annual community events such as the Day of the Dead, 4th of July celebrations, and Holiday Tree Lighting to name a few. And lastly, something to keep the theater lovers happy - why not catch a play at San Diego county's oldest continuously-running theater? The Patio Playhouse Community Theater has been an Escondido icon since 1967.
