Situated at the foot of the San Jacinto Mountains, Palm Springs, California is an unparalleled resort destination that combines small town hospitality with urban style. One look at the beautiful landscape and you will instantly fall in love with the city. Not only does it offer breathtaking scenery but it also offers fun activities like touring celebrity homes, hiking up to waterfalls, visiting museums, and much more.
Fly into Palm Springs International Airport (PSP) and one of the first things you will notice is the magnificent landscape.

One of the premier museums in Palm Springs is the Palm Springs Art Museum, which showcases modern and contemporary Western graphics, paintings, sculptures, architecture, photography, and much more. We at EscapeWizard.com suggest taking advantage of Free Second Sundays. The museum provides activities for all ages, including demonstrations of artists at work, hands-on family activities, performances, and films on art and culture.
In addition to having fascinating and entertaining museums, Palm Springs presents a number of exciting, unique festivals. EscapeWizard.com suggests attending festivals such as the Palm Springs Wild West Fest, Bob Hope Classic Golf Tournament, Palm Springs International Shortfest, and Palm Springs International Film Festival. One of the most renowned festivals in Palm Springs is the Palm Springs International Film Festival, held annually in January. During the festival, vacationers can view over 400 showings of over 200 films from over 60 countries. The biggest event of the festival is the Black Tie Award Gala, which draws the biggest actors, actresses, filmmakers, and media from around the world.
Palm Springs has a long history with the film industry, beginning back in the 1920s with a rule that actors had to be no more than two hours away from the studio. The same majestic desert scenery and relaxing atmosphere that attracts Hollywood celebrities lures vacationers. If you are interested in Hollywood or film history, EscapeWizard.com recommends the Walk of Stars on Palm Canyon Drive, Tahquitz Canyon Way, and Museum Drive.

When you are not visiting museums or trying to catch a glimpse of celebrities, you can take part in outdoor activities such as golfing at top rated courses, hiking through the Indian Canyons, and horseback riding through the desert. EscapeWizard.com suggests taking the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway to travel through Chino Canyon and explore the Mount San Jacinto State Park from thousands of feet in the air.
EscapeWizard.com recommends Palm Springs’s exciting shopping districts, such as downtown and the Uptown Design District, where vacationers can find fashion boutiques, art galleries, antique shops, and consignment stores. Visit the Backstreet Art District the first Wednesday of each month for Art Walks. Stroll through artist-owned galleries featuring collections of contemporary paintings, sculpture, photography, jewelry, ceramics as well as performing arts by nationally and internationally recognized artists.
