Napa, California Population, Hospitals, Airports, and Schools
The Napa Valley begins 55 km northeast of San Francisco. One of California’s two major wine regions. The Napa Valley is among the most colorful getaways in California, combining fine wines, extraordinary natural beauty and rich history. Of the myriad grapes harvested in the valley, four varieties produce the wines for which Napa is famous. An hour’s drive north of San Francisco via Highway 29 is the city of Napa, where the Napa Valley Conference and Visitors Bureau makes a good first stop. Other famous-name establishments in the region include Charles Krug, Clos du Val, Beaulieu and Louis Martini. Hollywood film aficionados won’t be able to resist a stop at Rutherford’s Niebaum-Coppola Estate Winery, where movie director Francis Ford Coppola and his wife, Eleanor, have been making wine since 1975. Calistoga has been famous for its mineral waters and residual volcanic mud -the town is built atop a boiling underground river ever since it was promoted as “California’s Saratoga” in the mid 1800s.
