Small Town Heart. Big City Soul

The Community - Palo Alto, California
Mingle with some of the world's sharpest minds while exploring unexpected delights in this sunny Silicon Valley city, Palo Alto Exclusivity is part of Palo Alto's allure. Stanford University accepts fewer than 5 percent of its applicants, and hiring rates for nearby tech giants Google and Facebook are estimated to be under 0.2 percent. But for visitors, the opposite is true. Anyone can visit Palo Alto - located conveniently close to both San Francisco and San Jose - and feel welcomed by the sunny climate, rich culture, and fascinating innovation - no application necessary. While here, be sure to explore University Avenue and downtown, stretching between the Stanford Campus and U.S. 101. University Avenue cuts right through downtown, so you're able to enjoy Palo Alto's nearly perfect climate easily with a stroll down the street, popping into shops like the historic Mills Florist or Books Inc. or stopping for a cone at Scoop Microcreamery. Every Saturday morning, local vendors flock here, selling everything from raw milk to freshly made pasta at the Palo Alto Farmers Market. A few other things you won't want to miss while here in Palo Alto is what is commonly known as "The Dish," a 150-foot-wide radio telescope nested in Stanford's foothills. A 3.5-mile hike leads you to the UFO-like structure, still in use today. And for the "arts" part of "arts and sciences," opt for a classic movie at the Stanford Theatre. The Theater, founded in 1925, screens only film (no digital) and is home to the Might Wurlitzer Organ, played during intermission. For posh open-air shopping, head to the Stanford Shopping Center for a mix of luxury designers (Burberry, Coach, Kate Spade) and well-known retailers, surrounded by gardens, fountains, and sculptures.

Explore more on your own of course, but to learn more of what you can do before getting there, check out their website here.

Airport Information: A swift 30 minute separates Palo Alto and the San Francisco International Airport, making this airport the smartest bet when flying in. The San Francisco International Airport (SFO) offers non-stop flights to more than 40 international cities on 37 international carriers. The Bay Area's largest airport connects non-stop with over 75 cities in the U.S. on 13 domestic airlines.
