San Jose grew from a hub for agriculture and gold rush era trade to become the heart of Silicon Valley and home to a massive tech industry. Founded in 1777, it served as the state’s first capital for a short time beginning in 1849. A large park system, including Kelley Park, gardens, historic sites, and cultural, educational, and athletic venues are among the city’s most popular attractions.
