About Bakersfield

   Bakersfield has two museums we have found of interest: the California Living Museum (10500 Alfred Harrell Hwy off Hwy 178) and the Kern County Museum (3801 Chester Ave).

• California Living Museum - Kind of a combination zoo-museum showcasing native wildlife, plants and minerals. Picnic facilities provided. Small admission charged. Phone 661-872-2256 for information.

• Kern County Museum - a campus of 56 buildings housing a wide range of exhibits depicting life in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. Small admission charged. Phone 661-852-5000 for information.

   About a hour's drive out Highway 178 in a little community named Bodfish is the Silver City Ghost Town. Carefully restored, we think you will find it quite interesting. (see Bodfish).
   Reserving a room in a fine hotel in the Bakersfield area is very easy here with Hiway-Guide.com. Just select the community with a left-click of your mouse and then select the hotel of your choice. You can even request desired amenities.
