WelcomeWhether you are visiting for business, for pleasure or to at-tend a conference or other event at Stanford University, you will quickly discover the unusual blend of intellect, innova-tion, culture and natural beauty that makes the Palo Alto area so special.

Palo Alto’s home to Nobel Prize winners, Silicon Valley CEOs, venture capital firms, Hewlett-Packard and one of the most renowned universities and medical centers in the world.

While Palo Alto developed as a sleepy college town, the emergence of Stanford University in the 1970s as the na-tion’s leading high-technology research center paved the way for hundreds of start-up businesses with connections to Stanford professors and their inventions. Thus Palo Alto be-came known as the birthplace of Silicon Valley and attracted engineers and others from all over the world to pursue their dreams.

The Stanford campus itself is the biggest visitor attraction, and visitors could easily spend a day or longer exploring the beautiful campus.

But at a minimum any visit should also include a walk or drive through the tree-lined residential neighborhoods (among the costliest in the nation), a walk in the foothills or Baylands and some great shopping and eating in the several business districts.

For our list of 10 sites not to miss while you are visiting, look in the “Attractions” section.

Enjoy!

The Palo Alto Visitors Center is co-located with the Palo Alto Chamber of Commerce at 400 Mitchell Lane in downtown Palo Alto. The Visitors Center is staffed Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and may be reached at 650-324-3121. The center has useful brochures and other materi-als and can assist with answering questions and addressing special or unusual needs of visitors.

The Palo Alto and Stanford area offers things to do for all ages and interests. Our favorite recommendations for out-of-town visitors are listed below. The numbers shown in ( ) are the location markers on the map on page 20-21.

A trip to the Stanford University campus is the highlight for most visitors, where attractions include Hoover Tower, Memorial Church, Cantor Arts Center, Rodin Sculpture Garden and a central campus bustling with activity (see page 14).

Hoover Tower (5)Stanford University; 650-723-2053; www.stanford.edu/dept/visitorinfo/plan/guides/hoover.htmlVisible to all the surrounding areas, Hoover Tower is a land-mark to Stanford students, faculty, alumni and the local communities. The 285-foot tower offers spectacular views of Stanford campus, the Foothills and the Bay Area from its observation deck. A student tour guide is available to point out important landmarks and sights.

Cantor Arts Center (4)328 Lomita Drive (at Museum Way); 650-723-4177; www.museum.stanford.eduStanford family members created the museum to display their personal collection of objects of art and cultural inter-est; now, the museum’s collections are devoted to a wide range of art, from 19th century American drawings to con-temporary sculptures. While at the center, visitors should be sure to visit Stanford’s outdoor sculptures: the Rodin Sculpture Garden, which houses the largest collection of Auguste Rodin sculptures outside of Paris, the New Guinea Sculpture Garden as well as numerous pieces throughout the campus. Admission to the museum is free, and visitors can take advantage of docent tours, lectures, gallery talks, special events, the bookstore and the cafe overlooking the sculpture gardens. Open Wednesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Thursday 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

HP Garage (7)367 Addison Ave., Palo AltoKnown as the Birthplace of Silicon Valley, the HP garage is a symbol of innovation and entrepreneurism. College friends Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard purchased the ga-rage in 1938 as a workspace to develop their own com-pany, which has become one of the most successful in the country. The modest building served as a research lab and a development and manufacturing workshop. However, as the company grew, the garage was quickly outgrown, and the company moved to a larger headquarters. The property is currently listed on the National Register of His-toric Places.

Computer History Museum (10)1401 N. Shoreline Blvd., Mountain View; 650-810-1010; www.computerhistory.orgDedicated to the preservation and celebration of comput-ing history, the Computer History Museum houses one of the largest international collections of computing artifacts in the world, including computer hardware, ephemera, photographs, moving images, documents and software. Through online and physical exhibits, visitors can discover the worldwide impact of the computing revolution on the human experience. While some of the online exhibits complement physical exhibits, most are independent from

each other and provide the visitor with unique information on computers. Admission to the museum is $12-$15. Docent tours are offered throughout the afternoon. The museum is open Wednesday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Sunset Magazine Gardens (3)80 Willow Road, Menlo Park; 650-321-3600; www.sunset.comIf you are the home-gardening type, you won’t want to miss a visit to the famous Sunset Magazine Garden. Lo-cated at Sunset Magazine’s headquarters in nearby Menlo Park, the display garden offers a glimpse of architecture and foliage from the major climate zones of the West. The garden contains a 1.2-acre lawn, four designated areas representing the Northwest, Northern California, Cen-tral California, and the Southwest Desert and Southern California regions, and a 3,000-square-foot test area. The entire display garden is open for free, self-guided tours, weekdays 9 a.m.-4 p.m.

Gamble Garden (8)1431 Waverley St., Palo Alto; 650-329-1356; www.gamblegarden.orgWilled to the City of Palo Alto by Elizabeth F. Gamble in 1981, the 2.3-acre Gamble Garden Center features a 1902 Colonial/Georgian Revival house and formal, working and demonstration gardens. The historic property is now a nonprofit community horticultural foundation and places an emphasis on education as well as aesthetic beauty. The demonstration gardens include an herb garden and cutting beds. The estate also includes a carriage house, teahouse, tool house, greenhouse and a gazebo. Conve-niently located and open to the public at no charge during daylight hours, a visit to Gamble Garden Center is always a relaxing experience.

Filoli Estate & Gardens (1)86 Cañada Road, Woodside; 650-364-8300; www.filoli.orgStanding for “Fight, Love, Live,” Filoli Gardens is one of the most magnificent remaining country estates and gardens of the early 20th century. The 43-room estate, built for Mr. and Mrs. William Bourne in 1917, allows visitors to enjoy a collection of 17th and 18th century antiques. The spectac-ular gardens, made up of terraces, pathways, pools, lawns, foliage, trees and flower beds, are perfectly groomed and ever-changing based on the time of year. The gardens are most known for their collection of more than 500 varieties of roses. Whether your goal is to enjoy the peaceful atmo-sphere or learn about the various plant collections, a stroll through the exquisite gardens will not leave you disap-pointed. The gardens and estate are open to visitors from mid-February through October.

Palo Alto Baylands (9)East end of Embarcadero Road, Palo Alto; Baylands Nature Center: 650-329-2506; Baylands Preserve: 650-617-3156The Baylands protects some of the last remaining salt-marsh and mud-flat habitats on the West Coast. It offers excellent birding year-round. Wintertime high tides bring bird watchers from around the world. In the spring and fall, the Baylands is a prime stopover or destination for birds traveling on the Pacific route of their migration flyway.

Downtown Palo Alto is crowded on Friday and Satur-day nights, when restaurant reservations are advised and parking can be diffi cult. Many downtown retailers are open in the evenings to cater to the bar and restau-rant crowd. California Avenue features a large num-ber of good restaurants popular with local residents, as does Castro Street in Mountain View.

Major grocery and drug stores are conveniently lo-cated. One of the biggest Safeway stores in the en-tire chain is located on El Camino Real in Menlo Park, less than a mile from Palo Alto’s northern border. Whole Foods has locations in downtown Palo Alto and just south of Palo Alto in Los Altos, and Mollie Stone’s operates a full-service market and deli on California Avenue.

The Stanford University campus is one of the larg-est and most beautiful in the country and deserves a visit regardless of the reason for your stay in the Palo Alto area.

Guided one-hour walking tours leave every day at 11 a.m. and 3:15 p.m. from the Stanford Visitor Cen-ter, 295 Galvez St. (at Campus Drive); 650-723-2560 — Visitor Information Services; visitorinformation.stanford.edu.

Learn more about Stanford’s history, architecture, landmarks and art by downloading a Podcast Tour at www.stanford.edu/dept/visitorinfo.

If you are short on time, the formal and most dra-matic entrance is from Palm Drive, which approach-es the Oval, the Main Quadrangle and Memorial Church from the east and downtown Palo Alto. The Quad is the academic center of the university, with various departments having their classrooms and offices throughout the perimeter.

The non-denominational Memorial Church (450 Serra Mall; 650-723-1762; www.stanford.edu/group/religiouslife/memchu.html) is generally open each week day. Visitors may explore the art and archi-tecture Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. and Sunday, 11:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Services, events and weddings can make access on weekends difficult, but a weekly ecumenical worship featuring choir and organ music is held each Sunday at 10 a.m. and open to the public.

For a great view of the entire campus and Palo Alto, take the elevator up to the top of 285-foot tall Hoover Tower, the university’s most visible land-mark and just a short walk from the Quad. Admis-sion to the tower observation deck (daily 10 a.m.-4 p.m.; closed during academic recess) is $2 for adults, $1 for children and seniors.

The Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace (650-723-1754), at the corner of Serra and Galvez streets, offers free exhibits on President Her-bert Hoover and his wife, Lou Henry Hoover, and rotating exhibits that focus on library and archival holdings in the Herbert Hoover Memorial Exhibit Pavilion, adjacent to Hoover Tower (Tuesday-Satur-day 11 a.m.-4 p.m.). www.hoover.org

Art and architectureArt lovers will find many great Stanford resources, but be sure and visit the Cantor Arts Center (see page 6) and the adjacent Rodin Sculpture Garden, with the largest collection of Rodin bronzes outside Paris. The Cantor, which offers free admission, is a popular cultural resource for the entire region.

While on campus, don’t miss the Stanford Papua New Guinea Sculpture Garden (Santa Teresa Street, off Campus Drive West), near Roble Hall, or pick up an Outdoor Art Tour, leaving from the Main Quad, near the top of the Oval.

Architecture fans may try to visit Hanna House, de-

signed by Frank Lloyd Wright, based on a hexago-

nal module. Reservations are required, for those 12

years and older for tours offered the first and third

r e c r e a t i o nThe Palo Alto area off ers recreational opportunities for almost every interest, from the casual walker to those looking for serious hiking, biking, golfi ng, tennis and other activities.

Immensely popular among locals and visitors, walkers and runners, is the Stanford “Dish” loop (see page 6), a paved path winding through the Stanford foothills with tremendous views of the university, Palo Alto and the entire Peninsula. The Baylands Nature Preserve(see page 6), located at the end of Embarcadero Road, off ers miles of fl at walking trials that allow visitors to explore the area’s extensive wildlife habitat. A staff ed visitor’s center has exhibits and a boardwalk extend-ing into the bay and the nearby duck pond is a fun place for younger kids. The Pearson-Arastradero Preserve, in the foothills beyond Stanford, has a small unstaff ed visitor’s center with exhibits and a network of easy trails ideal for one- to two-hour hikes.

Casual walkers with an interest in history and architec-ture will enjoy one of several historical walks around Palo Alto residential neighborhoods that date back to the late 1800s and early 1900s. Historic preservation is a big part of Palo Alto’s culture, and historic home tours take place a number of times each year. Palo Alto Stanford Heritage off ers self-guided tours through its website at www.pastheritage.org.

Golfers will fi nd Palo Alto’s popular full-length 18-hole, 6,800-yard Palo Alto Municipal Golf Course(1875 Embarcadero Road, Palo Alto; 650-856-0881; www.cityofpaloalto.org), located next to the Baylands at the end of Embarcadero Road, both challenging and aff ordable. The facility includes a club house, driv-ing range, putting green and practice bunker. Those with a connection to Stanford (alumni or parents) are able to play (with some restrictions and at resort-level green fees) at the Stanford Golf Course (198 Junipero Serra Blvd., Stanford; 650-323-0944 for golf course, 650-498-4461 for driving range; http://stanfordgolf-course.com), a beautiful and long course that is oper-ated by the university for its faculty and students and the private members who wait years on a waiting list to join. Mountain View’s Shoreline Links (2940 N. Shoreline Blvd., Mountain View; 650-903-4653; www.ci.mtnview.ca.us), also located in the baylands, is an-other good option.

Public tennis courts in Palo Alto are generally well maintained and easy to access. Most convenient to hotels are courts at Palo Alto High School (enter from 25 Churchill Ave.) and at Rinconada Park on Embarca-dero Road at Newell Road. Both are lit at night. There are many courts on the Stanford campus, but you are expected to have a university affi liation.

The Palo Alto area prides itself on accommodating and encouraging bike riding, and riders of all levels take ad-vantage of nearby rural areas and hills. The most popu-lar rides use Arastradero, Alpine, Portola and Sand Hill roads to create loops of diff erent lengths. Skilled rid-ers wanting to devote several hours or all day ride up to Skyline Boulevard and down to the coast and back. Mountain View’s Shoreline Lake, located in the bay-

lands just south of Palo Alto (and interconnected with the Palo Alto Baylands via trails), off ers sail, paddle and rowboat rentals, as well as a cafe, picnicking and walk-ing trails.

Both Palo Alto and Menlo Park off er lap-swimming through their municipal pools — Rinconada Pool (777 Embarcadero Road, Palo Alto; 650-463-4914; www.cit-yofpaloalto.org) and Burgess Memorial Pool (501 Lau-rel St., Menlo Park; 650-328-7946; www.menloswim.com). But if you’re up for sun paddling, windsurfi ng or renting pedalboats, rowboats, canoes or kayaks, the Shoreline Aquatic Center (Shoreline Lake, 3160 N. Shoreline Blvd., Mtn. View; 650-965-7474; www.shore-linelake.com) is the destination.

While Palo Alto is located between the Bay and foothills, the Pacifi c Ocean and the beach are only a 45-minute drive. The coast is often foggy and cold, however, especially in the summer, so your escape from the summer heat in Palo Alto may be more re-freshing than you planned. If you want to mix some shopping, eating and beach walking, your best bet is to head for Half Moon Bay.

Walkers often take to the loop trail behind Stanford, called ‘The Dish.’

I’m working to provide a healthier environment for my kids—and yours.It’s very satisfying to help the City of Palo Alto be more energy efficient and find resource solutions that lower our carbon emissions. But what really drives me is my children. I want them to grow up in a world that is cleaner than the one I grew up in.

The efforts we make today will have a lasting effect on generations to come. That’s why my work is a small step towards the greater goal of a healthier Palo Alto, and a cleaner planet.

To learn more about sustainability and renewable energy visit CityOfPaloAlto.org/utilities and click on “Sustainable Electric Resources.”

San Mateo County/Silicon Valley Convention & Visitors Bureau

Palo Alto and Stanford are served by a transportation net-work that includes the regional Caltrain (800-660-4287; for hearing impaired TDD 650-508-6448. www.caltrain.com) system, which operates frequent trains up and down the Peninsula between San Francisco and San Jose, the free Stanford Marguerite shuttle bus (650-723-9362. transportation.stanford.edu) service, local taxis (Yellow Checker Cab Company, 408-777-7777) and an extensive network of pedestrian and bike paths.

While most visitors arrive by car, it is feasible to land at ei-ther San Francisco or San Jose airports, connect to nearby Caltrain stations in Millbrae and Santa Clara (via BART at SFO and shuttle bus at San Jose) and arrive at the down-town Palo Alto train station. From there, the Marguerite Shuttle provides service to various locations on the Stanford campus and to selected stops in Palo Alto. The Sheraton and Westin hotels are both located next to the train station. Airport van shuttle services regularly oper-ate from both airports to Palo Alto and Stanford.

Parking in Palo AltoParking in most downtown Palo Alto lots is free for two hours (and parking garages for three hours) during week-days and Saturdays, after which a car is not allowed to re-park in the same “color zone” the rest of the day. It can be diffi cult to fi nd parking in the evening, especially on Friday and Saturday nights. A number of the better res-taurants off er valet parking.

Parking on Campus See page 14.

Palo Alto is an extremely safe community and other than obvious precautions when out late at night, visi-tors should feel comfortable freely exploring the city without concern for their safety. Use common sense and extra care when using the pedestrian tunnels at the train stations, and avoid walking alone at night. Downtown Palo Alto is a vibrant night spot that at-tracts many out-of-towners and a generally harmless homeless population, so some additional care is war-ranted late at night.

Urgent medical care is accessible from either the Urgent Care department at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation (located at 795 El Camino, between Town & Country Village and the Westin Hotel — adults, 650-321-4121; pediatric 650-853-6558) or the emergency room at Stanford University Hospital (300 Pasteur Drive — located at the back of the hospital off of Quarry Road; 650-723-5111). Follow “Emergency” signs posted on streets in the area.

If you have a non-life-threatening medical problem go to Palo Alto Medical Foundation Urgent Care. You’ll get quicker attention and excellent care. No appoint-ments are available except for pediatric urgent care,

where they are strongly advised. Hours are 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day of the year. The Stanford Hospital emer-gency room (open 24 hours) functions as a regional trauma center, so there can be long delays for patients with non-emergency conditions. The closest Kaiser Permanente Medical Center is located at 1150 Veter-ans Blvd., Redwood City (650-299-2000).

Dialing 9-1-1 for a medical emergency in Palo Alto or at Stanford will result in a response from Palo Alto Fire Department paramedics, who will transport patients to the Stanford emergency room.

For after-hours prescriptions, Walgreens at 121 East El Camino Real, Mountain View, (650-961-7555) is open 24 hours.

Pet emergenciesPet emergencies can be dealt with at the South Penin-sula Veterinary Emergency Clinic, 3045 Middlefi eld Road, Palo Alto (650-494-1461) or Adobe Animal Hos-pital, 4470 El Camino Real, Los Altos (650-948-9661).
