Napa California

About Napa

Any trip to central California will have to include Napa California as a target for that destination location. Hands down Napa California embodies all that is great about Napa County! Any visitor wanting to see the splendor and magnificence of what a real wine-growing and producing town really is like should come to the City of Napa. Daniel Coombs designed the town of Napa City way back when in 1847. Coombs contention was that the heavy amount of steamboat traffic from both the south and the north of California was enough to create a great port city. By establishing a few buildings on the banks of Napa Creek, Coombs made perhaps the best bet in the entire west! Since the town of Napa California was a natural point of navigation for Napa Creek, the trade and transportation enterprises for travelers and agriculture, became mainstays for the town of Napa California.
