Fresno
815 E Olive Ave, FresnoFresno Yosemite International Airport is a convenient hub for visiting the Sierra Nevada Mountains’ famous national parks, but check out the sights and flavors of Fresno before hitting the trails. For shopping, dining, and nightlife, visit the vibrant Tower District between Belmont and McKinley avenues, a neighborhood named after its centerpiece—the neon-lit Art Deco Tower Theatre. Elsewhere in town, tour the subterranean passageways and courtyards planted with fruit trees and grapevines at Forestiere Underground Gardens, and stock up on snacks at Simonian Farms, a 1901 fruit stand run by the family’s fourth generation.
