Fresno

Whether you're in Fresno, California for a long or a short stay, there are many places you can visit and keep yourself busy with. Here in the Central Valley, it's the only place where you can go skiing in the morning, and surfing in the evening. Fresno lies in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley, and this makes it possible to do both snow skiing and water surfing. Fresno is about 4 hours North of Los Angeles, and is about 3 1/2 hours South of the capital, Sacramento.

When you're here, don't be shy. The Central Valley has a multi-culture mixture of many different ethnic groups from around the world. Also, Fresno is home to one of the biggest Hmong population, (we're just second behind Minnesota). Here are some places you can visit while your pleasant stay in, "The Biggest Little City in the U.S.A.".

Here is a painting done by a famous Fresno painter, Jim Marburry. This painting is located at Susan B. Anthony Elementary School in Fresno. The school is located on Blackstone Ave just south of Olive. This painting is so huge that you will be able to see it just driving past the school.
