Santa Barbara :
Lush, sun-drenched, relaxed and nestled seductively between Los Angeles and San Francisco, Santa Barbara is one of America's best-kept secrets. From State Street and the Santa Ynez Mountains to the Channel Islands and the wine country, Santa Barbara basks in sunshine, natural bounty, creativity, cultural sophistication and an appreciation for taking life at your own pace.
History
About 13,000 years ago Native Americans called the Chumash settled this area. By the time the Spanish Missionaries arrived, they were living all along the coast and on the Channel Islands. One hundred and fifty independent villages had a population of about 18,000. The people spoke different but related languages. According to the Natural History Museum, "This trade was made possible in part by the seagoing plank canoe, or tomol , which was invented about 2,000 years ago. In addition to the plank canoe, the Chumash are known for their fine basketry, their mysterious cave paintings and their money made from shells."

Shopping
Santa Barbara is a shopper's paradise. In Santa Barbara proper, you'll find some of the best shopping in the outdoor paseos, easily navigated on foot and conveniently located along State Street downtown. Paseo comes from the Spanish word for "pathway" and reflects Santa Barbara's rich Spanish heritage. Strolling among these quaint cobbled arcades with their bubbling fountains, lush palms, and cascading bougainvillea is sheer shopping pleasure.
