When I was a child, grew up in central California, downtown San Jose was a place avoided. A number of years, Mayor Tom McHenry started a project in the city, the birth to a beautiful new or renovated area has to revive. San Jose is the largest of the cities in the Bay Area that carries the name of their rivals, often in the north of San Francisco. San Jose has both a larger number of people and a much larger area than San Francisco.
One of the youngestAdditions to downtown is the new City Hall with a clear dome, which invokes an image of transparency in government, like the (on a smaller scale) of the Reichstag in Berlin.
Many visitors to the city center from the outset as a visitor to a convention in the San Jose Convention Center, named after former mayor Tom McHenry. This modern facility will help to draw visitors into the downtown neighborhood.
The HP Pavilion also gave locals and visitors a reason to return to the city center. The HP Pavilion isonly on the other side of Highway 87, the rest of the city, but it is an easy walk from one to another. In addition to being the home of the San Jose Sharks is the pavilion also a popular venue for concerts.
You do not have a fan of hockey, the energy of the teal-clad San Jose Shark fans enjoy. To move in preparation for a Sharks game practice. Put both arms straight in front of you, one over the other, the palms facing each other. Move your arms apart and togetherand you are ready to "chomp" the other team.
Another popular sports team is the single-A farm team for the San Francisco Giants play the San Jose Giants to the south in the municipal stadium in the city. If you do not have the opportunity to play a minor league baseball game screen the film "Bull Durham" with billboards for local businesses on the fence. Against this background, some of Silicon Valley companies are advertising local databases instead of steaks. Now Playing ChildrenRace for the mascot of the bases or candidates try to knock out the headlights of a truck with a fastball to win a prize.
Since San Jose gets 300 days of sunshine a year, a great place to catch a meal is a side café in San Pedro Square, but also many other restaurants are also located downtown. For a budget meal, try a burrito at La Victoria, or a kabob on Askew. For a breeder meal one of my favorite classic local restaurants Paulo.
A great hands-on museum for young children is theChildren's Discovery Museum Woz Way (after the name and Apple founder Steve Wozniak big child). Older children and adults enjoy the Tech Museum celebrates the center of science and innovation that is the miracle that developed Silicon Valley. The Tech also has an IMAX theater.
My favorite venue for live theater in downtown is the San Jose Rep, which represents about 6 one years spectacular plays in a chamber play. There are no bad seats in the Rep. If comedy is more suited to yourThen please take a look at the comic style of comedy sports.
The neighborhood of downtown is accessible by car or on both CalTrain, Amtrack and bus.
