Map of Sacramento  

Tourism  
Even 150 years after the famous California "Gold Rush," visitors are still discovering gold in Sacramento. In the decades since fortune hunters flocked to the region in search of the glimmering metal, Sacramento has grown into the cosmopolitan capital of the nation's largest state.

Today you can find gold here without pans or mining equipment. It's in the area's family-friendly attractions, museums, and parks and gardens.
It's there for the taking at four-star restaurants and first-class hotels. It's in every seat in the house for Broadway musicals and local plays.
