Rancho Los Alamitos Historic Ranch And Gardens

Rancho Los Alamitos Historic Ranch & Gardens located at 6400 E Bixby Hill Rd, Long Beach, California, United States. The Rancho Los Alamitos Foundation operates Rancho Los Alamitos Historic Ranch & Gardens in a public-private partnership with the City of Long Beach. The 7.5-acre historic resource comprises the ranch house (constructed c. 1800-1933), four acres of nationally significant gardens, a barnyard area, visitor center, and research archive. The site has been continuously occupied and the land used for more than 1,500 years and the history of the site, as well as the lives of its owners and occupants, make it a perfect metaphor for the southern California experience. Rancho Los Alamitos explores the interaction between people and place, culture and environment, past and present to create a greater understanding of the evolution of Southern California in relation to the state, the nation, and the world.
