Fountain Valley California is a southern California town in the somewhat famous Orange County. Embodying the idea of a commuter town, Fountain Valley still serves its residents with a plethora of activities. For example, the city hosts something called a “Summerfest” where special events and recreation fill the town for 3 days. However, just short drives away, residents can find even more famous experiences. Disneyland is just 20 minutes away, and perhaps doesn’t even need introduction or explanation. A place where imagination is enlivened and children and adults can meet Disney’s most infamous characters, Disneyland offers more adventures than any one person can handle in a day. Offering perhaps a more adrenaline-pumping venture, Knott’s Berry Farm is also just a short drive from Fountain Valley.1 Not a farm that actually bears any produce, Knott’s Berry Farm is considered America’s First Theme Park. Should you need escape from the Californian heat, Soak City is adjacent to Knott’s Berry Farm and also offers bone-shaking and aquatic entertainment.
