Historic Glendale
Walk into an antique store to check out some vintage dishes, jewelry, and furniture. Then pop into a fashion boutique for 20-something women that's filled with hot pink tulle, bedazzled skulls, and roller derby-like attire. Feeling hungry? Roll into a burger joint and chow down on some American fare. Then get through the digestion drowsiness by walking down the street to a world-renowned museum. Sounds like San Francisco or New York, right? Wrong. It's Downtown Glendale. We're talking about antique stores like Granny G's Shady Nook or Strunk's Hollow; restaurants like A Touch of European Café or Haus Murphy's; and, of course, the Bead Museum. And that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to historic Glendale. Oh, yeah, believe it.
