Sacramento is a city that celebrates its Gold Rush past. Visitors today can view more than 50 historical buildings, including the 1849 Eagle Theater and the 1853 building that was once home to the California Supreme Court. A fascinating perspective can be gained by taking an underground tour. Due to flooding, Sacramento became the only city in California to physically raise its streets. Climb aboard a train powered by a vintage locomotive for an excursion along the levees of the Sacramento River.

All the fun and fantastic food of the California state Fair is just a mile away from Sacramento Shade RV Park at the Cal Expo center. Midway rides, concerts, competitions and exhibits are packed into 18 days in the summer. Raging Waters Sacramento is also located on the grounds. More than 25 rides and slides provide cool fun for those of all ages. Cal Expo is the scene of the only live harness racing on the West Coast. The fishing is fine, from the bank or from a boat, on the Sacramento River. Discover Discovery Park in downtown Sacramento, where the American and Sacramento rivers converge. Boaters can use the boat ramp to access both rivers.
