Temecula, California: Rolling Vineyards and Small-Town Charm

Located in Southern California between Los Angeles and San Diego, Temecula feels like a small farm town compared to the metropolises it’s sandwiched between. Its landscape offers a relaxing contrast to its neighbors’ urban sprawl; here, you’ll find rolling vineyards that produce award-winning wines, with a high concentration of syrahs and zinfandels. Tours and tastings are a popular way to explore wineries, but Temecula’s countryside can also be sampled during a horseback ride through the surrounding ranches and meadows.

You can also hitch a ride in a horse-drawn carriage through Old Town Temecula, which resembles an Old West town with its rustic windmill, decorative wagons, and historical buildings. Along the wooden boardwalks, you’ll find saloons, antique shops, and boutiques selling handmade quilts, baked goods, and cuckoo clocks.
