I can't think of a better place than Santa Fe Depot (Union Station) to welcome visitors to San Diego.  It's such a beautiful place and I even think making a trip to see just that is worthwhile.

The architecture, reflective of the city's Spanish Colonial heritage, is breathtaking.  When passengers get off a train and walk alongside the historic building and rows of majestic palm trees, I see them just smiling.  Once inside, then the interior makes anyone stop and say wow.  The high ceiling, brilliant tile work throughout, cozy benches, and a little cafe... all create a very inviting atmosphere.

As light comes in from huge windows and bounces off the floor, the entire place looks more like an art museum than a train station.  Click here to see another painting of Santa Fe Depot.
