Pasadena, the City of Roses, is most famous for its New Year's Day Rose Parade and Rose Bowl football game. The number of people in the city balloons every year after Christmas as visitors come from all over to decorate and view the floats, as well as to attend arguably the most famous college football bowl game of the year. Pasadena has become the most exciting place for night life in the San Gabriel Valley. With a vibrant Old Towne in the western section, chic shopping and dining on South Lake and abundant services in the eastern area, Pasadena is really the place to be! Pasadena is one of the oldest cities adjoining Los Angeles and is the main population center of the San Gabriel Valley in Southern California. Downtown Pasadena is a cultural mecca with museums, theater houses, and movie theaters playing independent films. Most visitors to Pasadena will also not want to miss the nearby Huntington Library with its large art collection but more famous for its 150 acres of botanical gardens used as a backdrop for many Hollywood films.
