Danish Beauty of Solvang California

Solvang is a popular Danish community and tourist attraction in south-central California United

States.

It is situated near Santa Barbara and nestled in the Santa Ynez Valley at the heart of the wine

country.

Solvang which means “Sunny Valley” was established in 1911

after a group of Danes colonized it and made it a town until it was integrated as a city in 1985.

Because Solvang has been colonized by Danes, it is no

question why most structures like churches and buildings reflect that

of Danish-style architecture.

To date, there are windmills standing in the city and other

Danish statuary like Little Mermaid and other Danish style facades,

thatched roofs, rural houses, half-timber etc.

These unique structures are what make the place so popular among

tourists.

This year 2011, Solvang will be celebrating their 100th

anniversary and this commemorates their centennial

year.

This also includes the Julefest Parade which will be held on

December 3, 2011.

These celebrations are another attraction to tourists.

The location offers more inns, hotels, motels, service stations, and the Andersen’s popular split

pea soup restaurant.
