WHAT TO SEE AND DO IN SACRAMENTO CALIFORNIA IN A DAY

Sacramento was never on my list of places to visit in California. I barely even knew it was the capital of California and assumed it would be a bland, capital city 

Getting around Sacramento

If you don’t have your own car, getting around Sacramento CA is easy with the help of Sacramento Regional Transit District. Choose from a variety of bus and light rail routes to get you where you need to go.

Visit the State Capitol Building and grounds 

The Capitol building serves as both a museum and the state’s working seat of government. The building houses the chambers of the California State Legislature, made up of the Assembly and the Senate, along with the office of the governor of California 

See the Johnny Cash Mural

The Johnny Cash Mural, which is 15 stories tall and was created by the same artist who produced the 2008 Obama Hope poster to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his Folsom Prison Blues album, attracts visitors from all around 

Grab a Coffee at Temple Coffee 

For a great cup of coffee, head to Temple Coffee in Midtown Sacramento. This hip café offers a wide variety of coffees, as well as pastries and sandwiches for breakfast or lunch. 

Explore Midtown and its Mural

Midtown is the hip and trendy region of Sacramento located mostly along the residential community with old homes and tree-lined streets. It’s also the center of Sacramento’s art, music, and cultural scene filled with breweries, hip cafes, upscale dining and clubs, artisans, and vibrant murals.
