Abstrakt: Santa Monica, a coastal California destination, is preparing to celebrate the centennial of Route 66, which ends in Santa Monica and begins in Chicago. Route 66 is an iconic highway that has been a focal point of American culture, with references in literature and a TV show. Santa Monica plans to have lengthy celebrations to coincide with the centennial, and their tourism office will provide a certificate of completion to those who travel the entire highway. Santa Monica is more than just a beach city, with numerous museums, art galleries, restaurants, and hotels. The destination is also praised for its sustainability and walkability, with bike lanes and electric shuttle services available. Several hotels in Santa Monica were highlighted at a recent Toronto event, including The Sandbourne, The Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalow, Affiliated Shutters on the Beach and Casa del Mar, and The Regent, which is set to open later this summer.
