Southern California Day Trips
Solvang Danish Village is located in the Santa Ynez Valley inland from Santa Barbara, California. This quaint town was founded in 1911 by a group of Danish educators. Today the town manly caters to tourist who arrive by car and bus. The city is home to danish bakeries, restaurants, and merchants offering a little bit of Denmark in California. Many of the buildings are built Danish style including a life size windmill. Solvang means "Sunny Field" in Danish, however these days most of the fields in the Santa Ynez Valley are planted with grape vines. A visit to Solvang means strolling the streets window shopping, taking pictures and of course indulging in some Danish pastries.
