Heritage Hill Historic Park

Take a step back into the second half of the 19th century in a pocket park with beautiful landscaping and four restored historical buildings. It's a surreal escape, hidden behind more modern-looking strip mall. Treasures include a museum with artifacts and original documents, an old school and church, and a lovely adobe residence. Christmas season is the best time to visit when the grounds are decorated with lights and Santa comes to take gift orders. Guided tours are provided during limited hours or you can explore the grounds on your own.
