Oakland Museum of California

Museum of Art & Digital Entertainment

　　If you love video games, the MADE is the heaven you go to when you die and are all out of extra lives. It's a museum of sorts, but more a sort of time-travel arcade filled with video game consoles ranging from Playstation 4s to Neo Geos to Atari 2600s....

Children's Fairyland

　　This 10-acre kiddie attraction dates from 1950, and we're not sure if it's been overhauled since. We mean that as a compliment! Children's Fairyland, with its little Aesop and Grimm Bros themed attractions, has all of the nostalgia feels. There's a raw authenticity to the faded Peter Rabbit gardens and...
