It was a pleasant experience full of history. I really enjoyed the quiet garden and the sounds of the ponds.

Built in 1797 it is one of California’s famous 21 missions. Growing up in San Diego we have the oldest one in terms of date and I have seen about half of them over the years but I had not got the chance until this weekend to see San Fernando Rey. It is beautiful as expected with a wonderful mission style church and well kept gardens surrounding the whole property. I just got my stitches out from a foot surgery so I was looking for something easy but outdoors so I’m glad I chose to visit here. It’s always nice to check another one off the list and I would recommend to anyone.

It's nice enough, and there's even the Bob Hope memorial garden in the back. The museum area is quite extensive, even with a library, and the chapel and grounds reasonably well-maintained to justify the quite expensive cost of admission. A bit quirky that a lot of the emphasis was on associations with Dr. Pepper (?) and the aforementioned Bob Hope.

kermet the forg | Sep 5, 2018

No Very few of the missions allowed the neophytes (converts) to return to their villages. Once baptized, they were expected to remain at the mission to receive education in religion and trades. A couple of the largest missions that oversaw thousands of acres of land for ranching livestock did allow neophytes to remain in their villages. That was because the villages were taken over by the mission's ranches. Not here, at Mission San Fernando.
