Solvang is a town in the Santa Barbara County in the Santa Ynez Valley in Centralcalifornia.
In Danish Solvang means “sunny field”.
The town was founded in 1911 by a Danish group of educationists on a former Spanish Mission.
Almost exactly in between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the small town San Luis Obispo can be found. It is even reachable over Highway One (more about iconic Hwy 1 here)!
This cute, little town offers a high quality of life and for that it got the nickname “America’s happiest city”. There is not too much to explore here but it is already worth visiting only to get to know this relaxing vibe here.
