The History of Riverside

Riverside was founded in 1870 as a colony with the goal of furthering education and culture.  Before Riverside was a city, the land was a Spanish ranch.  California’s first golf course was located in Riverside.  Riverside became famous for navel oranges after Brazilian navel trees were planted there in 1871.  As the city continued growing, a small guest inn was built, known as the Mission Inn.  The Mission Inn has since grown to be a world famous hotel that has seen many famous guests from movie stars to presidents.  Ronald and Nancy Reagan honeymooned at the Mission Inn and Richard Nixon was married there.  Riverside was incorporated in 1883, with the county of Riverside being formed in 1893.  The Mission Inn was designated a California Historical Landmark in 1961 and a National Historic Landmark in 1977.

Riverside's Famous Landmarks

Riverside is undoubtedly best known for the Mission Inn and Spa.  The Mission Inn is known for its rich history and list of famous guests as well as its fine dining and historic rooms.  It also is a very popular wedding venue featuring a beautiful chapel and reception area.

Castle Park is located in Riverside and is a 25-acre amusement park and family center.  It features three rollercoasters, four 18-hole mini golf courses and an arcade with over 200 games, making it one of the most popular family destinations in the city!

California Citrus State Historic Park   is a unique museum documenting the role that the orange played in the history of this city.  The groves of oranges, lemons and grapefrute that can be found here are a flashback to what the entire region once looked like.

University of California Riverside is one of California’s many public universities, but what makes Riverside unique is that it features a park-like campus located on almost 1.200 acres.
