Rafting the American River near Sacramento, California (courtesy, Sacramento CVB)
On This Page:Sacramento Overview
Sacramento, with a metro-area population of nearly 1.8 million, is one of the state's fastest-growing areas. It's far from being a tourist town, but it does have its share of touristy activities. Visitors and locals alike enjoy a day spent walking through Old Sacramento, floating down the American River, or biking the shady paths along the Sacramento and American rivers. In addition to being the state capital, it's a thriving shipping and processing center for the fruit, vegetables, rice, wheat, and dairy goods produced in the Central Valley. Within the past decade it's also become a receptacle of high-tech spillover from Silicon Valley, and more recently, a suburb for Bay Area workers seeking affordable homes. As such, the quantity and quality of downtown restaurants—such as the Esquire Grill and The Waterboy—have greatly improved.
