| This
wonderful little park is tucked up the hill behind the
Albinger Archeology Museum. We almost passed it by
for this directory but we decided to track it down on a
whim. We're very glad that we did.
You actually have to go
up a flight of stairs to get to the park. The
wonderful landscaping and great views are just an appetizer.
The really interesting part about this park is the antique
mission-era water filtration building that is absolutely
wonderful. The brick is exposed through the remnants
of adobe and there's just something about it that is very
charming.
If you have business in
Ventura and wanted a place eat your sandwich or walk off
lunch, this park is a wonderful, unique place to do
it. You will also like the view from the top of this
park.
Directions:
Take the 101 to Main Street and follow the signs to the
Mission. The Albinger Archeology Museum is two doors
down from the Mission. To the left as you're facing
the museum you will see a large sign for Valdez
Alley. Follow the alley to the end and walk up the
flight of stairs. You won't be disappointed.
