Distance from Los Angeles to Santa Barbara. Cheap flights from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles Santa Barbara Los Angeles

Santa Barbara is probably one of the most famous cities on west coast USA among Russian residents. The reason for this is the series of the same name, which aired on central television for almost 10 years in the 90s of the last century. Today I will show you what this small town is really like.

I ended up in Santa Barbara in February of this year, while traveling around the western states of America with the support of a service for independent travel Letim.me. We were heading from Los Angeles to San Francisco, and Santa Barbara was on our route.
Some 150 km. on an excellent road from LA and we are there.

1. If you look at the city from a bird's eye view, it is an ordinary coastal American city with smooth, wide streets. Nothing special:

2. But as soon as you walk around the city a little, expensive mansions and well-groomed streets immediately catch your eye:

The close proximity to Los Angeles, the lack of fuss and an incredibly mild climate have made Santa Barbara the most attractive city for buying real estate. The weather here is comfortable all year round with minimal precipitation. Average annual temperature in Santa Barbara it’s about +15. It's warmer than cool San Francisco and much more pleasant than sultry Los Angeles in the summer months. This place is often called the American Riviera by analogy with the Cote d'Azur.
The population of Santa Barbara is only about 100 thousand people. A provincial town at first glance.

4. Located almost in the city center Train Station. Small building built in 1905:

4. We were lucky. While we were walking in this area, I arrived at the station passenger train Los Angeles - San Francisco:

5. The composition is two-story and it is clear that it is not entirely new. However, there were a lot of passengers at the station. Apparently this train route is popular:

6. In general, in the USA, trains are not popular. An excellent road network, cheap gasoline and affordable airfare make trains less attractive for traveling around the country:

7. From the station we go towards the coast:

9. Tall palm trees are the first sign that we are near the ocean:

10. Dolphins at the entrance of the city pier:

11. Beach line Santa Barbara:

12. City Pier. It has various shops and cafes, just like in Santa Monica or San Francisco. The flags caught my attention. Do you see the Russian tricolor?

13. This is the flag of the Russian-American company:

The Russian-American Company is a semi-state colonial trading company founded by Grigory Shelikhov and Nikolai Rezanov and approved by Emperor Paul I on July 8, 1799.
A trading company was created to colonize the coast of America (!). After the sale, Alaska formally existed until 1881 and paid dividends until 1888.

14. Pacific Coast:

17. Well, we’ll go to another important place in Santa Barbara. Along the way we'll see the city:

18. Typical American streets:

19. School Bus:

20. Along the way I barely have time to catch mansions with my camera:

21. Where are the fences? In our country, all this would be covered with a 3-meter fence, out of sight. Maybe this is CC or Mason's house?)

22 So we arrived at one of the main attractions of the city. Mission of Saint Barbara:

At the end of the 18th - beginning of the 19th century, the Spaniards carried out active missionary activity in California (of course, with the goal of strengthening their influence in this territory). Over several decades, they built 21 missions at a distance of about 48 kilometers from each other. Mission Santa Barbara was founded tenth in 1786. It is now the most visited active mission of all California missions. The city of Santa Barbara arose around this mission.

23. The mission is located in the upper part of the city:

24.

25. It was here that the screensaver for the series of the same name was filmed. Remember these arches?

26.

27.

28. In conclusion, let’s look at the city again from a bird’s eye view of the drone:

That's all!
