The Del Monte Express, a branch line of the Southern Pacific Railroad, brought the first visitors to the Monterey area in 1880. Guests stayed in the newly-built Hotel Del Monte, one of the finest seaside resorts in the world, marveled at the scenic beauty of nearby Pacific Grove, Pebble Beach and Carmel, and viewed the picturesque Chinese fishing communities that existed here until 1906. See the region as those first tourists did with The Monterey Peninsula, A Postcard Journey, and revisit the most historic spots in Monterey, including Pacific Grove, Carmel, Point Lobos, Tassajara and Big Sur.
