Attractions
Sunnyvale is minutes away from the world-class excitement of San Jose. Residents and visitors alike can enjoy amusement parks, professional sports games, museums, wineries and cultural arts events.
The Sunnyvale Historical Museum chronicles the City’s founding families and agricultural development, from 1850s cherry, plum and pear orchards to today’s high-tech industrial parks. Children’s Discovery Museum of San Jose is an educational, cultural and discovery center for kids, families and groups. More than 150 hands-on exhibits and programs invite tinkering, testing, tasting, listening and learning to help young visitors understand this complex world. Bonfante Gardens Family Theme Park is a one-of-a-kind experience combining four unique gardens and amusement rides with the mid-20th century history and agricultural roots of Santa Clara Valley.
The Lace Museum is one of two museums devoted solely to lace in the western part of the U.S. and showcases an extensive collection of lace and lace tools. The Winchester Mystery House includes such oddities as a stairwell that leads to a ceiling, a window built into the floor, doors that open to blank walls, and upside down posts.
