Hidden Gems of Santa Barbara

Santa Barbara’s quieter side features historic engineering at the 1807 Mission Dam and the botanical legacy of Franceschi House. The city's artistic character is preserved in downtown galleries like Sullivan Goss and Waterhouse Gallery, which showcase contemporary realism and California landscapes. Further west at UCSB, the College of Creative Studies and Glass Box Gallery offer platforms for experimental student work, while the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden holds the traditional ShinKanAn Japanese teahouse.
