Sacramento, CA

United States

Sacramento, California's capital, sits where two rivers meet in the Central Valley, 90 minutes from San Francisco via I-80 and six hours from LA on I-5. Highway 50 heads east to Lake Tahoe, while Highway 99 runs through farm country. The airport is 12 miles northwest of downtown. The State Capitol sits in a park with trees from six continents, including 140-year-old camellias.
