Want to visit Europe but that just doesn't seem possible? Well, you're in luck my new friends! No, I am not handing out free tickets to Europe, but I can tell you where to visit a quaint little Norwegian city just about an hour or two north of Los Angeles.
Yes, that's right, I am speaking of Solvang, California. www.solvangusa.com/ That little Danish village made famous for its windmills, to die for sweet buns and pastries, and for being one of the many stops in that delightful little film, Sideways.
Solvang is a great place to just wonder around and get yourself lost in. There are quite a few little gift shops that sell native Danish gifts and other findings. There are a few antique shops, which includes a fantastic two storied antique store that will keep any antique browser happy for hours. The collection of pianos is especially nice. There are some great restaurants found in Solvang as well. The places dive into the typical Danish fair that include savory meals and some of the best sweet buns you will ever eat. Oh, and did I mention the wine? Solvang has some great places that offer wine tastings amongst the village setting. Any connoisseur of wine (or frankly just a fan of the film Sideways) will be in heaven with these wine tasting options. There are also quite a few vineyards near the area of Solvang that offer some great wines as well as some very tranquil and beautiful settings. The scenery alone is worth venturing out to. And it's a great way to spend the afternoon, or just an hour or two.
There are two ways to get yourself to this little European village. The first is the much faster route that involves taking the 101 freeway north from Los Angeles. This is the best option if you find that time is a factor for you. It's not too far north from Santa Barbara and it will probably only take you about an hour and a half to reach Solvang from this way. The other option is the longer more scenic route by a little two lane road. This is fantastic if you have some extra time on your hands as the view you get while driving is absolutely unbelievable. For a weekend trip, I highly recommend taking this longer route to Solvang. It's a beautiful drive and it really lets yourself relax and realize you really are out of the hustle and bustle of the city. It's an especially nice drive in autumn, and well anytime of the year.
Solvang is a great little place to get away from it all, relax a bit, and just feel a little like you really are in Europe...even though it's in the beautifully sunny California.
