Mission San Miguel Arcángel is one of the most iconic and historic destinations in California. Founded on 25 July 1797, the mission has seamlessly blended its past and present with its old weathered adobe walls, ancient gateways, and vibrant paintings throughout its buildings silently substantiating the presence of history. Not to be missed are the mural paintings inside the church that are made all the more unique by their neoclassical finish and a picturesque colonnade just outside leading to the same. A visit to Mission San Miguel Arcángel is bound to have you in awe as you step inside a time portal filled with lush grounds and smothered in typically Californian vibrancy.
