Your Introduction To Palm Springs, California
Palm Springs, California is a two-hour drive approximately 100
miles east of the city of Los Angeles in beautiful Riverside
County. First inhabited by the Cahill Indians, the name Palm
Springs comes from the Indian phrase meaning "The Palm Of God's
Hand". By 1950, Palm Springs became a getaway resort for the
rich and famous. As of the year 2,000, almost 43,000 people
resided in this lush area. In the wintertime, this number jumps
to almost 75,000 people, with around 27,000 people living in
second vacation homes.
Palm Springs lies in the California Desert on the western edge
of the Coachella Valley. At 487 feet above sea level and
covering 96 square miles, it offers a beautiful view of the
impressive Mt. San Jacinto. In addition to natural landmarks,
the city offers it's residents an almost endless number of
activities including tennis courts, golf courses, an Olympic
sized pool, a dog park, a water park, and trails of all kinds
(including bike routes and horseback trails). Palm Springs even
has a baseball stadium. Palm Springs is also noted for it's vast
city library and museums.
In addition to these activities, Palm Springs also offers
visitors the chance to visit boutiques, art galleries, antique
shops, restaurants, and night clubs.
Palm Springs has an unusually warm, dry climate. This is because
it is surrounded by the San Jacinto Mountains on the west, the
Santa Rosa mountains on the south, and the Little San Bernadino
mountains to the north. Although temperatures rise above 100 in
the summer, you will still remain comfortable due to the low
humidity.
One of the outstanding activities offered by Palm Springs is
golf. Palm Springs offers over 30 different golf courses spread
throughout it's vast acreage. It attracts the most prestigious
golfers in the world, including Jack Nicklaus. In fact, Palm
Springs is the home
of the PGA West Jack Nicklaus Tournament
Course. This course is the home of the PGA 's Tour Qualifying
School. The course is names as one of Golf Magazine's top 100
golf courses you can play. Other fabulous courses you can try
out are the PGA West TCP Stadium Course, Silver Rock Resort
(designed by Arnold Palmer), the Palm Desert Resort Country
Club, and the Desert Princess Country Club. As you can see, Palm
Springs hosts the best of the best when it comes to golf.
When you have had your fill of golf (or if golf is not your
thing), Palm Springs offers a multitude of fun, unique
activities for you to enjoy. If you feel like taking to the sky,
you can enjoy a ride in a colorful hot air balloon, allowing you
to view the beautiful vistas of California. For a little more
excitement, you can ride in a classic biplane or warbird of the
20's or 40's. Imagine the thrill of aerobatic flying with a
naval pilot at the controls.
If the sky isn't your cup of tea, then you can take advantage of
the Coachella Valley and the surrounding area. You may wish to
take nature hikes in the valley, or take a ride on the
breathtaking Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. The tramway is a
suspended cable car with a 15-minute ride across the valley each
way. If you decide to stay on the ground, horse riding and jeep
tours are available.
Palm Springs is a showplace retreat for people of all walks of
life. It offers something for everyone, from visitors from other
countries, to those just wanting to get away for a while. It
offers breathtaking views, as well as the beauty of the city
itself.
