Petaluma
The picturesque riverside town of Petaluma is known for its well-preserved historic center, and is now a foodie haven.
Chartered in 1858, Petaluma is one of California's oldest cities. The city's riverfront location made it a bustling destination during the mid-19th century Gold Rush when the river carried produce, poultry and dairy products from this fertile valley to the rapidly exploding populations of San Francisco and Oakland.
