Treat Yourself to the Holiday Festival at the Mission Inn

December 16, 2011


The Historic Mission Inn in Riverside is a glow with the Festival of Lights. One half million twinkling lights illuminate Main Street and the entire block. If you have never treated yourself to an evening at the Mission Inn site, it is well worth the trip.


Not only are the lights and animated figures a thrill to see, there are booths and a skating rink for true wintertime fun. This is the 19th year of this spectacle that is quite unique in Southern California.


Of course Santa Claus will be there every evening through December 24 when he has to pack up and make his Christmas rounds.


The entire event reminds one of picture postcards of holiday festivities from times past. A visit will definitely evoke strong feelings of nostalgia.
