Founded at the peak of the Southern California citrus boom, Corona has a rich history. Before the 1980s, agriculture dominated the city. It is famous for its citrus farms, dairy pastures, and large ranches.

Once known as the "Lemon Capital of the World," a large museum explores the lemon's role in the local economy. In the '90s, the soaring cost of living in Los Angeles and Orange County caused people to flood the suburbs. By the year 2000, Corona was home to over 129,000 people. Nicknamed "Circle City," it has a unique roadway layout. Built on a large grid that circles the Grand Boulevard, over three miles of roadway curve into a circle shape.

Many celebrities come from the city of Corona, like Travis Barker, D.J. Strawberry, and Jodie Sweetin. Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz owned a ranch in North Corona, where they would often play golf. Celebrities aren't the only excitement to come out of Corona. Many companies make Corona their corporate headquarters, including Fender Musical Instruments, Monster Beverage, and supercar manufacturer Saleen.

If you're looking for a peaceful escape from the city's sounds, Corona is the place to go. Check out Chino Hills State Park, located in the foothills of the Santa Anna Mountains. It has over 60 miles of wildflower-lined trails. Corona is also home to Santiago Peak, the highest, most prominent Santa Anna mountain peak. Explore other attractions like The Corona Heritage Park and Museum, the Hidden Valley Wildlife Area, and the Riverwalk Parkway. Guests can relax at the Glen Ivy Hot Springs spa, with 17 outdoor pools.

If thrills are more your thing, there are plenty of exciting options as well. Corona is home to Skull Canyon Zipline, offering two 160-acre zip line courses for guests to enjoy. The Pole Position Raceway is home to the world's fastest, best-known electric go-cart, the Formula EK20 Pro Kart. There is also a 100-acre paintball course called SC Village Paintball & Airsoft Park, one of the country's largest paintball courses.

Of course, it would be a shame to talk around the city without sampling the local fare. You'll find everything from Mexican food to Vietnamese dishes. Corona has no shortage of meals for everyone to enjoy. Stop by TAPS Fish House and Brewery for fish and a brew.
