About the Park

Located near downtown San Diego, Balboa Park is the largest urban cultural park in the United States. First established by the City of San Diego in 1868, it is also one of the oldest city parks in the nation.

Considered the cultural heart for the region, organizations within the 1,200-acre park redefine what a rich cultural experience should be. From music, dance, art, theater, food, science, nature, heritage, and more across 17 museums, the San Diego Zoo, miles of hiking trails, and multiple gardens, athletic complexes and more-there’s something for everyone to enjoy!

After visiting the Museum of Us, check out more exhibitions and events happening all over Balboa Park.
