California is a world-class destination for all sorts of travelers—including history buffs. Visitors can find rich historical gems in surprising 和 delightful ways, from hidden plaques in 旧金山's 朴茨茅斯广场 和 Chinatown to Angels Flight, a still-operating funicular in downtown 洛杉矶 that dates back to 1901.

Many California cities can trace their roots back to Native peoples, 欧洲探险家, 淘金热, 和 a melting pot of cultures that blended over hundreds of years. On this episode of the 加州现在 播客, host Soterios约翰逊 delves into that history in three iconic California cities: 旧金山, 洛杉矶, 和圣地亚哥.

Johnson starts out in the City by the Bay, connecting with author 和 旧金山 historian 加里Kamiya about how the city has played host to bootleggers, “垮掉的一代”, 和 everything in between. 下一个, Johnson speaks with Robert Petersen, host of the Hidden History of 洛杉矶 播客, about some little-known aspects of La-La L和 culture—including everything from Walt Disney’s favorite haunts to peacock crossings in 世外桃源. 最后, Johnson talks to Bill Lawrence, president 和 CEO of the 圣地亚哥 History Center, about how the confluence of 圣地亚哥's Spanish settlers, 军事, 科学, 和 popular culture make for a fascinating history lesson—和 a one-of-a-kind sightseeing experience.
