Best known as the home of the San Diego Wild Animal Park, Escondido is a city of 138,000, founded near the site of the historic battlefield where the bloodiest fight of the Mexican-American war of 1846 was fought. Escondido is surrounded by agriculture, particularly citrus and avocado (neighboring Fallbrook is called the avocado capital of the world). Grand Avenue, old Escondido's downtown main drag, is experiencing a well-conceived renewal, with historic storefronts filled by new restaurants and an antiques district with a mother lode of finds. Two of the biggest are Escondido Antique Mall, 135 W. Grand (tel. 760/743-3210), and Hidden Valley Antique Emporium, 333 E. Grand (tel. 760/737-0333), each holding dozens of individual dealers.
