Los Encinos State Historic Park

I was so impressed to find such rich history preserved locally here in Los Angeles. Los Encinos State Park, now fenced in by a quite residential neighborhood, was once a 5,000 acre ranch that centered  the local economy. After taking a self guided tour, you start to picture what life was like in Los Angeles between the 1800's-1900's. On site, there's an Adobe building that was over the years home to 6 different families. Learning about each family, their lifestyles at the times they resided on the ranch and seeing their actual relics was fascinating. Outside of this Adobe house, my sister Khloe and I spent most of our time feeding Geese by this beautiful pond on site. Interestingly this pond is actually filled by a natural spring.
