“Do you know the way to San Jose?” Yes, head for the Pacific and stop south of the Frisco bay!  There are so many reasons why people ask the way to San Jose — in addition to hearing that song with the catchy lyrics about it. Anyway, it’s like the song says, “LA is a great big freeway.” But San Jose has a very different vibe than the Los Angeles megalopolis a few hundred miles to the south. This area is steeped in Western US history and profound academic pursuits, and features many monuments reflecting that. Some of the most popular include many museums in the downtown area, like the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum, the Japanese American Museum, and many others. Further, the world-renowned Stanford University is 23 miles from downtown. San Jose State University is the oldest on the US West Coast. Other sights not to be missed include the spectacular Cathedral Basilica of St. Joseph and numerous other splendid architectural works. The Irazú Volcano National Park outside San Jose and the Poas Volcano National Park are for those craving much grander sights to behold. Also, visit the La Paz Waterfalls and many, many other gorgeous wilderness sites near San Jose.
