Destination San Juan Capistrano - Celebrating the Winter Holidays in this historic Town

   
 

A Children's Paradise

A trip to San Juan Capistrano would not be complete without a visit to Zoomars, where children enjoy pony rides, train rides and animal petting.

Also for the children, this year the Camino Real Playhouse is performing "A Christmas Carol". This version is a treat for the whole family to see. It takes place on Christmas Eve in 1843 as friends and family gather at the Dickens home and insist that he tell them a story. The story unfolds with a small cast playing over 40 parts. Camino Real Playhouse invites you and all of your family to a unique presentation of this classic story..

The opportunity to create family traditions, the glowing colors of the season, green rolling hills, wine tasting, a downtown rich in history and small town charm and filled with eclectic artistic boutiques and Orange County's finest restaurants, makes San Juan Capistrano our Holiday Destination.

Mission San Juan Capistrano
Mission San Juan Capistrano, the Birthplace of Orange County, was founded more than two hundred years ago. Today it is a monument to California' multi-cultural history, embracing its Native American, Spanish, Mexican and European heritage.

Visitors will discover many areas of interest within the Mission walls. You can hear the tolling of century old bells and walk down its time worn paths. The serenity and peace amid the 10 acres of lush gardens and cool fountains, cloistered by old adobe walls, offers visitors seclusion from the sights and sounds of a busy world. Visit the Serra Chapel, Padres Quarters, Industrial Area, Soldiers Barracks, Cemetery and The Great Stone Church.
