Eureka
Eureka's walkable waterfront and Victorian streetscapes make it one of the most photographed cities on California's North Coast, with the entire city designated a state historic landmark. The nationally recognized Carson Mansion anchors a district of hundreds of Victorian homes, while the preserved 19th-century Old Town Historic District holds cafés, restaurants, and historic churches along Humboldt Bay. The city also hosts California's oldest zoo, the Sequoia Park Zoo, and serves as the regional hub for the redwood coast north of the San Francisco Bay Area.
