Temecula…a city you’ll love, quirks and all

You may describe yourself as quirky. You like to do things your own way—which is basically saying, a little different than everyone else’s way—and somehow, you seem to attract unordinary things to your life. Well, odd friend, we think you’ve found your municipal match.

Temecula, located where interstates 15 and 215 meet, is a rapidly growing middle- and upper-middle-class city with sprawling, single-family homes. It has everything, from shopping at Promenade Mall to historic buildings in Old Town Temecula to weekly events like the local artists’ and farmers’ Thursday Night Market Place.

Yet the quirks are the real draw—Professor Phineas Pennypickle’s Imagination Workshop, a thriving dirt-biking/off-roading community and the supposed Tori Spelling-owned B & B, which may actually be located in nearby Fallbrook. They add true character to a booming community that’s set against the beauty of the mountains.

For a more mainstream brand of entertainment, residents and visitors head to the Pechanga Resort and Casino, which hosts popular acts like Liza Minelli and Jerry Seinfeld. But really—they’re kinda quirky too.
