Hotels in Visalia

Beneath the shadow of Sequoia National Park, this agricultural hub offers unexpected delights. The Visalia Fox Theatre, a restored 1930s movie palace, hosts performances that draw crowds from across the valley. Mooney Grove Park invites lazy afternoons under ancient oaks, where paddleboats drift across the lake while families picnic nearby. Catch a baseball game at Valley Strong Ballpark, where hot dogs taste better with Sierra Nevada views. Adventure Park delivers family thrills with go-karts and mini-golf that keep kids entertained for hours. Downtown's surprising food scene features farm-to-table restaurants where chefs work with ingredients harvested that morning. Time visits for farmers' markets where locals sell produce so fresh it was in the ground yesterday.
