Central Park Library

Reviewed By ZackUribe - Santa Clara, United States

This library has a decent resident selection and since they are tied to the rest of the Santa Clara city library service AND NOW, the Link+ group, it is much easier to get access to harder to find books.

49ers Museum

Reviewed By avgjoey - Barrie, Canada

Everything you want to know about the 49ers you can see here. One of the best sports museums I have ever visited. Price of admission was fair. Loved the interactive activities. Great statues of legend players. The Super Bowl trophy room was neat. Great honors to Bill Walsh. All football fans should visit this place. It is part of the stadium so parking could be a challenge.

We returned to Westfield Valley Fair Shopping Center. This is a nice indoor shopping complex with lots of stores, cafes, food court, movies, and so forth. The shopping center recently reopened after being closed for several months due to the virus. As such, people were very happy to be able to be shopping again.
