SAN JOSE SILLICON VALLEY San Jose is the most concentrated tech center in the entire world with close to 7,000 tech companies. But there are other things that make this such an interesting city. If you’re at #QBConnect this year, make sure you check out these hotspots! Santana Row With over 70 shops, 20 restaurants, and 9 spas and salons, this should be top of list if you want to shop up a storm. Be sure to check out their excellent rewards programme if you like a bargain! Lick Observatory The James Lick telescope has a lens diameter of 36 inches and a focal length of 17.6 meters, making it the third largest optical refracting telescope around. Arcadia Steak House We all love a good steak house, but this eatery offers a contemporary twist and prime cuts of beef, meat and poultry - delicious! Downtown Yoga Shala San Jose is in the top 10 least stressed cities in the country, so you can bet that the local yoga studios are pretty good! Winchester Mystery House This historic house is thought to have 160 rooms, as continual building started after Mrs. Winchester was told by a psychic that she would die if construction stopped. Our House Eatery Like meals created with local, sustainable and GMO free ingredients? Then check out this unique eatery. Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum San Jose’s Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum is the largest collection of Egyptian artifacts in the West. Sonic Runway San Jose is ranked one of the top three safest big cities in America,so why not take an evening stroll through this light installation located in front of San Jose City Hall?.
