Country music lovers will have to give Bakersfield a stop, even if only for Buck Owens' Crystal Palace, a museum/restaurant/live music venue that both captures and celebrates "the Bakersfield sound." Live performances, whether musical or theater, are a staple of Bakersfield culture, and you won't want to pass one up. While you're here, explore the Bakersfield Museum of Art and the Buena Vista Museum of History. If you're up for something more outdoorsy, don't forget that Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks, as well as the Sequoia National Forest, are just around the corner.
