Solvang which means sunny fields in Danish, is a hidden gem located 74km north west of Santa Barbara. This little town is home to a number of bakeries, restaurants and merchants, offering visitors a taste of Denmark in California.
The weather was fantastic, it was hot and sunny
Solvang street view. The architecture of the buildings and facades reflects traditional Danish style
The pedestrian friendly village is boosted by a bevy boutiques with elegant antiques and collectibles that are beautifully crafted
The best substitute for brains is Silence. Silence is a great substitute for intelligence =)
There are a variety of boutiques selling blue and white Delft ceramics.
More ceramics...
Beautiful night lights! Very magical...
Love this cute signage - If Dad says no call 1-800-Grandpa.
Oooh! Very interesting place! Like the decor!
ReplyDeleteI would like one or two of those nightlights actually as I'm looking for a good one for my new room.
LOLOL: If dad says no call grandpa!
I was very tempted to buy one as well. but I figured is not a necessity, better not waste any more money.
DeleteI would actually only get one of them if they were cheap hehe
DeleteI will go mad shopping at the boutiques, esp the accessories. Looks like a great place to visit and hoping I can do the same some day.
ReplyDeleteYes it is very nice. But I think it will be more meaningful if you bought it in Denmark. =)
Deleteooo, the scenery of the store is so quaint, it does look like it could be some european village! :D
ReplyDeleteIt is a mini Danish town... they attract 1 million visitors per annum.
DeleteOh, so that's where Solvang is. Looks like a fun day trip.
ReplyDeleteIts pretty nice. The town is relatively small but the food there is awesome.
Deleteeverything looks nice. and i reckon i will be guilty of buying lots of souvenir if i'm there.
