California Through My Lens

Historical Structures

People have been living in California for centuries, and during that time, many historical structures have been created. Take a trip back in time and check out some of California’s lost history. Head to a Nike Missile Site to see a piece of the mid-20th century, or if you’re looking to go even farther back, head near Joshua Tree National Park and scope out some of the mines that gave the state its nickname. Alternatively, if you want to see some of California’s oldest artifacts, head over to the Blythe Intaligos. There are lots of historical structures in California that are worth the visit.
