The park has gone through some difficult times lately, especially with the state budget crisis. Fortunately, they have dedicated people who want to keep it open. It's an important part of California History. And I need to offer a correction of an earlier review. Pio Pico was the last Mexican Governor of California, not the first.

I recently revisited the 3 acre, Pio Pico Historical State Park. I was pleased to see that minor improvements to the Adobe Mansion, that once belonged to the first Mexican Governor of California, were made since my last visit several years ago. The exhibit provides a wonderful example of how such structures were made. There are limited hands on activities that are available for children. Tours are offered when in attendance. This park is well maintained and park Rangers are eager to greet you when noticed. There is plenty of parking and drinking fountains can be found throughout the park. Expect to spend about 30 minutes tops, inside the exhibit and another 20 minutes walking outside the grounds. It is free to visit unless you choose to make a donation. Literature is also available in English and Spanish when touring the exhibit. They open at 10a.m. and close by 3:30p.m. It's also great for a picnic, exercising or walking your dogs.
