I was impressed

One of the most beautiful government buildings in the United States, the Santa Barbara County Courthouse is a working courthouse. We are encouraged to explore what the grounds have in store for us. Here we find the sunken gardens where many weddings are held, an elevator to the 85-foot tall “El Mirador” bell tower with panoramic views of downtown Santa Barbara, many hand-painted rooms full of detail, and many wrought iron handrails and window coverings that make the courthouse what it is - spectacular. We open one of the many doors, behind which a court hearing is currently underway. We sit on the back bench and listen for a few minutes. Two felony handcuffed and shackled prisoners are paraded right past us.

Stearns Wharf is located in the port of Santa Barbara, California, USA. After its completion in 1872, it became the longest deep-water wharf between San Pedro and San Francisco. Named after its builder, local lumberjack John P. Stearns, the wharf served passenger and cargo shipping on California's south coast for over a quarter of a century.

If you want a firsthand look at one of the most beautiful public buildings in the country, look no further than the Santa Barbara County Courthouse. Designed in the Spanish Colonial style and completed in 1929, the fully functional courthouse is a Santa Barbara landmark with its distinctive four-sided bell tower, red tile roofs, elegant arches and verdant sunken garden and grounds. On self-guided tours, visitors can get a visual history lesson through the intricate hand-painted murals, marvel at ornate wrought iron chandeliers and climb to the top of the bell tower for incredible panoramic views of Santa Barbara and beyond.

Santa Barbara feels especially European these days thanks to the introduction of the State Street Promenade. The heart of downtown Santa Barbara's entertainment and retail district has been transformed into a sprawling 10-block pedestrian walkway between Sola and Gutierrez streets*. You can now explore, browse, shop, sip and dine while enjoying the architectural beauty, sights and sounds of State Street - without car traffic. Conditions couldn't be more ideal for a stroll!
