Just down the coast from the raucous Los Angeles, yet a world away in terms of culture and lifestyle, San Diego is one of the most relaxed and peaceful cities in the United States. San Diego may well be one of the more affluent areas of the country, yet it has retained its Californian easy and casual nature. Thus San Diego is the ideal place for those who look for more refinement and for whom subtlety is important.

While San Diego does have amusement parks nearby, such as Lego Land, the city’s main charms and attractions emphasis the magnificent countryside that surrounds the city. For example the enchanting La Jolla coastline, with views that are quite simply out of this world and you can watch seals enjoying the California sun, and be invigorated by the clear Pacific air as it wafts in from the ocean.

For those who need thrills and spills, there is Belmont Park with its traditional style roller coaster, which first opened in 1925 but was shut down between 1977 and 1990. Open once again to the public, the coaster might not be the most terrifying in California, let alone the world, but the views of the Pacific are incredible.
