| | Travel for Kids: San Diego, California: Balboa Park |
 | | It's hard to imagine, but in the early 19th century, Balboa Park was a dry mesa, covered with sagebrush. |
 | | Other exhibits focus on rocks, plants, animals and the landscape of Southern California and Baja California, from Pleistocene era fossils to regional habitats, from the the coast, mountains, desert, Colorado River delta, to the Gulf of California. |
 | | Any time of year, the garden is planted with bright colored plants, and you'll want to dip your fingers in the star-shaped blue tiled fountain in the center. |
