Renaissance Faires are held in a location which resembles a village in England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I.These faires include costumed performers,musical and stage performances,stores selling art and handicrafts of that period. Professional actors representing historic figures roam in the faire, interacting with the visitors.

Napa and Sonoma both the places attract a large crowd of wine lovers.You can visit a variety of Wine making factories here and taste their personal own blend of wines.We visited one among them i.e Benzier Family Vineyards. They took us in a tram over their vineyards and explained their organic wine making methods.


Also they have build a huge cave to store the wines for fermentation.


If you would like to see the hanging grapes then August-September is the best month.Grab a picnic basket and enjoy a outing in these vineyards.
