The Wild Animal Park in San Diego is a unique experience. This massive facility is set up to resemble the plains of Africa and Asia, and the animals roam free through huge enclosures. Rhinos, cheetahs, lions, wild horses and giraffes are just some of the species on display. A railways system takes visitors through the park.

Sample San Diego’s vibrant nightlife at the Gaslamp Quarter located downtown. Jazzfest, Mardi Gras, art-walks and club-hopping are a blast in this district. Luxury condos and lofts are available around this area. If classic elegance is more to your taste, look in Del Mar and La Jolla.
