NasirThe Aircraft Carrier Museum Midway is well worth a visit, with rich exhibitions and high historical value, especially the flight deck and veterans explanation.

rxzhaoThe San Diego Aerospace Museum is not as big as Washington, but it has a very good tour. The museum is divided into two areas, telling the evolution of various aircraft during World War II, and also has a real model of modern aircraft. 👍 is very suitable for taking children to 🤭.

7. Balboa Park
5.8135 Reviewsbased on 13.1k reviewsNo.8 of Best Things to Do in San DiegochenweiwenBalboa Park: Balboa Park, covering an area of 4.9 square kilometers, is a famous cultural park in the center of San Diego, USA. It is named after the Spanish explorer Vasco de Balboa. Balboa Park is the former site of the 1915 World's Fair in California. The city of San Diego built many magnificent museum buildings for the World's Fair. The complex castle buildings not only reflect the characteristics of the Spanish colonial Renaissance period that was popular at the time, but also reveal a strong Gothic, Baroque and Rococo style. There are 14 museums, four theaters, a complex sports field, a rose garden and a Japanese garden in the park, adding brilliant colors to the park. The famous San Diego Zoo is also located in the park. Most of the venues in the park have been demolished, leaving only a few to be preserved forever, so that future generations can imagine the grand occasion of the year. In 1977, Balboa Park was rated as a national historic landmark.San Diego4.2km from San Diego Intl. Airport AreaFree entry
