【Hearst San Simeon State Park】

After leaving [Hearst Castle (Hearst Castle)], Zhang Feng continued the day's itinerary to [Hearst San Simeon State Park].

Due to limited time that day, Zhang Feng only stopped briefly at the mouth of the state park [San Simeon Creek].

Because the [Saint Simon River] enters the sea from here, it attracts many seabirds to this freshwater area to drink and play.

【Hearst San Simeon State Park】

After walking on the beach at the mouth of [San Simeon Creek] for a while, watching the waves surge and fall, and the birds flying back and forth, Zhang Feng knew that he should continue his next stop [Morro Bay (Morro Bay)]. Bay)]
[Morro Bay (Morro Bay)] Located in the south-central section of the California coastline, the terrain of Morro Bay is very unique. Compared with the overall area of ​​the bay, the outlet in the northwest corner of it is very narrow, and it is connected to the Pacific Ocean on the periphery. [Esters Bay] is like a natural breakwater shielding the wind and waves of the sea.Morro Bay, which is as flat as a mirror, is a natural harbor for fishing boats and yachts; it is also a paradise for lovers of water sports such as sampans and canoes.

The most distinctive feature of Morro Bay is the hemispherical [Morro Rock] located at the mouth of the sea. Morro Rock was named in 1542 by the Portuguese navigating explorer [JRCabrillo]. "Morro" is Spanish for a round hill.Morro Rock is 176 meters high and is an extinct volcano with a long history.Morro Bay is also a protected area for migratory birds.

It was dusk when Zhang Feng arrived at [Solvang, Danish Village], [Danish Village] stores are mainly gathered in the southwest area of ​​the intersection of Mission Dr (246) and Alisal Rd, and parking is simple and free.At this time, most of the shops on the street have been closed, and there are no bustling tourists during the day, which adds a solemn and peaceful beauty anyway.

The town is full of strong Danish customs.The third weekend of September every year is the "Danish Day" in the small town. The Danish Festival's lively celebration program often attracts many tourists to visit Danish Village.

[Solvang] The Danish flag with a white cross on a red background is usually hung on the street
Solvang is indeed famous as a Danish village. The buildings in the urban area completely gave Zhang Feng the feeling of walking into a European village, completely forgetting that he was in California.According to information on the Internet, this village was built in 1911 by a group of educators who wanted to pass on Danish culture. The Nordic-style town buildings have almost the same feel as the antique old houses in Denmark today. Even though he came from Denmark Tourists are amazed by it. Since the 50s, it has become an important attraction on the West Bank and one of the most beautiful and distinctive towns.

The Nordic-style buildings with windmills and unique shops and restaurants make tourists feel like they have entered the land of fairy tales.Due to the restrictions of urban regulations, there is no chain store culture intrusion here, which can be said to be a rare forbidden place in today's flooded American popular culture.
