While you're in town, we highly recommend spending some time at Balboa Park, one of San Diego’s most iconic destinations. This sprawling urban park is home to beautiful gardens, walking trails, museums, and stunning Spanish Colonial architecture — perfect for a relaxing afternoon or a day of exploring. It’s also where you’ll find the world-famous San Diego Zoo, home to thousands of animals and consistently ranked among the best zoos in the world. Whether you’re wandering through the Japanese Friendship Garden, visiting an art museum, or spotting giraffes and koalas at the zoo, Balboa Park has something for everyone.
