Santa Clara is located in California's San Francisco Bay Area, in the east-central part of the state. It is the center of Silicon Valley and houses the headquarters of several major tech companies, including Intel. The city borders Cupertino, San Jose and Sunnyvale. It also houses Levi's Stadium, where the San Francisco 49ers play, as well as Santa Clara University, the state's oldest higher education institution. Located less than 50 miles from San Francisco, Santa Clara has a unique climate with warm, sunny summers.
Enjoy the great outdoors at Rancho San Antonio County Park, which has several hiking trails of varying difficulties, along with an educational center and a farm. Another top attraction is the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum, where you'll see exhibits housing ancient artifacts and mummies. If you're up for an adventure, head to Great America, an amusement park in San Jose that has thrill rides and water slides.
