One of the most memorable moments of a Concord vacation will be seeing the Port Chicago Naval Magazine National Memorial, which marks the spot where desegregation of the military got its final push during World War II. The Bay Area is known for its Victorian homes dating back to the 19th century, and one of the finest is the 1856 Don Francisco Galindo House, which is open to the public for daily tours.
