| 説明 | Nestled along California’s central coast, Carmel-by-the-Sea is an enchanting seaside village known for its rich history, eclectic architecture, and pristine natural beauty. Once a haven for artists, writers, and poets, Carmel has preserved its bohemian charm while blending it with luxurious living. The town’s European-inspired fairy-tale cottages, designed by famed architect Hugh Comstock in the 1920s, are among its most iconic landmarks. These whimsical structures, adorned with steeply pitched roofs and storybook details, create a unique architectural signature.A walk through Ocean Avenue reveals hidden courtyards, art galleries, and boutique shops, many housed in historic buildings that reflect the town's commitment to maintaining its old-world charm. Unlike most cities, Carmel’s streets have no street addresses, further enhancing its intimate, village-like feel.Historically, Carmel was home to many famous figures, including poet Robinson Jeffers, whose home, Tor House, offers a glimpse into his life and the early days of the town’s artistic community. Just outside the village lies the Carmel Mission Basilica, founded in 1771 by Father Junípero Serra, a significant part of California’s Spanish colonial history.Adding to its allure are the stunning views of Carmel Beach and Point Lobos, offering coastal bluffs and cypress trees that inspire photographers and nature lovers alike. Carmel-by-the-Sea is more than a destination; it’s an artistic and architectural journey into the past, seamlessly combined with modern sophistication. A true gem of the Monterey Peninsula. |
