128 2 0 1 7 T R A V E L G U I D E T O C A L I F O R N I A Sports fans cheer the Los Angeles Angels at the Angel Stadium of Anaheim and the Anaheim Ducks hockey team at Honda Center, which doubles as a big-name con- cert venue. More than 40 championship courses and a temperate climate await golfers, while hotel and day spas stand ready to soothe aches and tone muscles. City & Town Anaheim is the largest of Orange County's 34 cities. None has a truly distinctive downtown, though Huntington Beach offers a vibrant seaside city center. History buffs gravitate to San Juan Capistrano's beautifully preserved 18 th -century mission, Yorba Linda's Nixon Presidential Library and the restored Victorian homes and his- toric city centers in Santa Ana and Orange. INSIDER'S TIP » Southern California's renowned CAR CULTURE goes to extremes in Newport Beach, which seems to have more exotic auto dealerships than Starbucks. Aficionados can ogle BMW, Maserati, Bentley and McLaren beauties along seven miles of Pacific Coast Highway from Newport Boulevard to Newport Center Drive. PHILLIPS AUTO sells used versions of all of the above, as well as Ferraris, Jaguars and Lotuses. FASHION ISLAND, inland on Newport Center Drive, is home to Tesla, and Aston Martin is a short way beyond. LAMBORGHINI NEWPORT BEACH, strangely enough, is actually in adjacent Costa Mesa—or perhaps not so strange in a world where the Los Angeles Angels are in Anaheim.
